Growth momentum and buy now, pay later adoption bolster underlying outlook
Affirm recently received a new investment from Western Wealth Management LLC, which acquired 4,225 shares valued at about $292,000 in the second quarter. The company reported mixed first fiscal quarter results, highlighting a 33% year-over-year increase in revenue and strong growth in gross merchandise volume. Continued adoption of buy now, pay later services, merchant network expansion, and rapid growth of the Affirm Card are supporting fundamentals. CEO Max Levchin noted the impact of artificial intelligence on payments and increased transparency in financial products.
Oversold signals emerge as resistance contains bearish momentum
The nearest dynamic support is provided by the MA-200, with resistance located near the Ichimoku Kijun level at $72.31. Momentum indicators on the daily chart are mixed: ADX is weak and neutral, while MACD signals continued bearish momentum. RSI, Stoch RSI, and CCI all point to oversold conditions, suggesting sellers are losing strength. The BBP shows strong seller dominance at present, but the daily Awesome Oscillator reinforces the prevailing downtrend.
Sideways price consolidation expected amid mixed technical signals
Looking ahead, the realistic price range for the upcoming week is $65.00 to $70.80. The probability of a price increase is moderate (50%), based on one strong weekly buy signal and mixed momentum readings, making a decline similarly likely. The baseline scenario expects AFRM to consolidate sideways within this corridor. A bullish scenario would see the price reclaim resistance above $72.30, while a bearish outcome could emerge if the price falls below the $64.80 support, potentially triggering further downside.
Last time, we reported that AFRM was experiencing mixed momentum and oversold oscillators as resistance and support converge. It was previously noted that further downside favored as recovery odds remain limited for the asset based on technical indicators.
