Cloud revenue surge and backlog offset regulatory scrutiny as drivers

Oracle's cloud infrastructure revenue surged 93% year-over-year in its most recently reported quarter, underscoring robust expansion within one of the company's most strategically important business lines. This rapid growth highlights strengthening demand that is likely driving increased investor interest and supporting current buying momentum. Additionally, Oracle's contracted backlog reached $638 billion, according to 24/7 Wall St., providing long-term revenue visibility and reinforcing the fundamental outlook. Recent regulatory scrutiny by EU authorities on Oracle’s cloud licensing terms introduces an element of uncertainty, but the strong operational performance remains the primary catalyst for today's move.

Positive momentum signals as price stays above near-term supports

On the hourly chart, ORCL is holding above both the MA-20 at $152.78 and MA-50 at $149.88, while the daily chart shows the price remains below the MA-200 at $168.77. Immediate support is defined by the Ichimoku Kijun level at $149.71. Momentum technicals are positive with MACD and ADX both indicating buy signals, and the CCI also in buy territory. RSI currently reads at 70.86 and is in overbought territory, while Stoch RSI is neutral. Bull/Bear Power reflects sustained buying control in intraday trading, whereas the Awesome Oscillator is neutral and does not confirm the trend.

High probability of upward move amid consolidation scenarios

Looking ahead, the expected price range for ORCL over the next several sessions is projected at $156.27 to $169.77, reflecting typical volatility around current levels. The probability of an upward move is considered very high, with a downside scenario seen as very unlikely. The base case projects price consolidation within the current band; a bullish breakout above resistance could target the higher end of the range, while a breach of immediate support near $149.71 would open the door to a pullback.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, Traders Union expert, sees Oracle’s explosive cloud revenue growth as a fundamental catalyst for continued upside momentum. He believes the record $638 billion backlog offsets current EU regulatory concerns and signals strong market confidence. Technicals also support a constructive stance above key support levels. "Oracle’s robust cloud expansion and resilient outlook make any pullbacks opportunities to add, with upside breakout potential dominating the short-term landscape."

Earlier, analysts noted that Oracle's consolidation phase reflected major AI-driven investments and restructuring aimed at positioning the company for long-term cloud growth. The latest surge in cloud infrastructure revenue and contracted backlog strengthens this outlook, with immediate focus now on the $168.77 level as a potential inflection point for a bullish breakout or near-term pause.
