Current dynamics

Shares of Starbucks Corp., one of the largest companies that owns the coffee shop chain of the same name, have been trading in a sideways range of 93.75–100.00 (Murray level [4/8]–[8/8]) for the third month and have not been able to leave it yet: the price is currently testing the upper boundary of the channel and if it consolidates above it, it will continue to grow in the upper reversal zone to 103.12 (Murray level [ 2/8]). If the asset consolidates below the middle line of Bollinger Bands 96.88 (Murray level [6/8]), a decline to the area of 93.75 (Murray level [4/8]) and 90.62 (Murray level [2/8]) is expected.

Technical indicators do not give a single signal: Bollinger bands are turning up, the MACD histogram is stable in the positive zone, but Stochastic is turning down. It is worth considering that the long-term upward trend in the market remains, which increases the likelihood of renewed growth in quotes.
