Intraday buying surge fuels price spike as momentum accelerates
Affirm experienced a significant surge in share price during the afternoon session, as reported by Stockstory. This rally was driven by concentrated intraday buying activity, reflecting heightened investor demand and momentum-driven trades. The marked increase in trading activity has been a key driver of the latest upward move.
Bullish signals confirmed as price sustains above multiple supports
On the hourly chart, AFRM is trading above its MA-20 ($67.87) and MA-50 ($65.73), indicating short- and medium-term bullishness. The daily timeframe places the price above the MA-200 ($66.84), while the Kijun level from Ichimoku at $67.32 is acting as immediate support. Technical momentum is strong, with MACD and ADX both issuing Buy signals, RSI at 71.94 (overbought), and Stoch RSI in Buy territory. CCI also affirms a bullish bias, BBP signals buyers are in control intraday, and AO remains neutral.
Further upside likely as volatility band shifts to buyers
AFRM is expected to trade within the $69.74 to $80.70 range over the next four trading days, representing a typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of further upward movement is very high, while a downward scenario is considered very unlikely. A bullish breakout above $80.70 would reinforce buyer control, while a drop below $69.74 support would signal a shift towards selling pressure.
Earlier, analysts noted that Affirm was exhibiting accelerating bullish momentum, underpinned by strong technical signals but tempered by caution around potential short-term volatility. The current upswing, driven by robust intraday buying and reinforced by fresh technical confirmation, positions $80.70 as the critical level for traders to watch for a potential breakout in the days ahead.
