Buy signal in management: a pause under pressure
Our view last week
Datadog's buy signal has been under management since week 12, with the trade more than 99% in profit. After late June's sharp rally the stock has stalled: this week closed nearly flat (+0.4%), but under the surface sellers took control of volume (64%) and money flow has nearly dried up. The weekly RSI stays overbought at 72.9, while the trend, measured by the ADX, keeps gaining conviction - a technical picture worth watching closely.
This week's summary
Datadog gave back 4.6% this week, with sellers in control of 79% of volume and money flow nearly dried up. But the last session tells a different story: a daily hammer, the lower wick four times the body, signals a firm rejection of the decline, with buyers back in charge on the daily chart. Datadog shares remain boxed between resistance in the 252 area and support in the 245 area, with the weekly RSI down to 67.6 from last week's overbought reading.
