Highlights

  • Netflix shares trade at $1,102.85, remaining below the MA-20 ($1,146.93), MA-50 ($1,185.87), and MA-200 ($1,126.10), signaling persistent downward pressure.
  • Q3 earnings showed 17% revenue growth year-over-year and a 34% EBIT margin, but revenue and EPS missed analyst estimates; a ten-for-one stock split is set for November 10, 2025.
  • Momentum indicators such as MACD (sell), RSI (37.62), and ADX (19.14) reflect continued bearish bias, with the $1,086–$1,100 support key and rebound probability under 20%.

Stock split and insider sales after revenue growth miss

Netflix recently reported 17% revenue growth year-over-year and achieved a 34% EBIT margin in its third-quarter earnings, despite revenue and EPS falling just short of analyst estimates. The company announced a ten-for-one stock split, with record date November 10, 2025, and upcoming split-adjusted trading. Insider transactions were also noted, including share sales by the chief legal officer, co-CEO, and CFO, partly related to tax obligations.

Bearish momentum and oversold signals amid weak trend

Short-term price action faces resistance at the Kijun level of $1,160.98, while dynamic support sits at $1,085.86 (weekly MA-50). Momentum indicators remain bearish: MACD is in a sell setup, ADX at 19.14 reflects weak trend strength, and oscillators such as RSI (37.62), Stoch RSI (neutral but low), and CCI (–66.00) all suggest increasing oversold pressure. The Bollinger Band Percent (BBP) adds to the intraday selling bias. Although shares opened slightly lower, they have moved back toward the daily high in a session of moderate volatility, but divergences between momentum and oscillators underscore continued vulnerability.

Downward bias persists as upside recovery remains unlikely

In the coming week, the expected trading range is $1,115.51 to $1,127.91. The likelihood of an upward move is low (under 20%), so continued consolidation or a downward break is favored. Unless the price decisively reclaims $1,161, the base case is a sideways-to-lower bias, with a deeper decline likely if support near $1,086–$1,100 fails to hold.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees continued technical and sentiment headwinds for Netflix shares as the price persistently trades below all key moving averages and momentum signals remain clearly bearish. Although recent fundamentals, such as 17% revenue growth and a strong EBIT margin, show underlying strength, near-term price action reflects skepticism—especially with insider selling and mixed earnings results weighing on sentiment. Kharitonov maintains a cautious stance, favoring sideways or lower movement unless overhead resistance at $1,161 is decisively reclaimed. "Until Netflix convincingly reclaims the $1,161 level, the base case is for consolidation or further downside, and I remain defensive in the current setup."

Previously, it was highlighted that bearish momentum persists as oversold signals and weak trend indicators defined Netflix’s price action. The article also noted that limited rebound prospects and a narrow trading range were expected in the near term.
