BlackBerry Stock Price Prediction: BB to Escape Declining Pattern?

  • BlackBerry stock price has been on a roller-coaster ride.
  • BlackBerry share price increased 0.81% during Friday’s trading session with an opening price of $3.66 and a closing price of $3.72.
  • BlackBerry share price is trading below the 20, 50, 100, and 200-Day EMAs.

BlackBerry stock price was at $3.72 with an increase of 0.81% in Friday’s trading session. The trading volume remained below average in Friday’s trading session. The formation of the small-bodied bullish candlestick with no upper and lower shadows in the last trading session shows that neither the bulls, nor the bears dominated the market.

The small-bodied bullish candlestick with no upper or lower shadows suggests that the price of the open and close are equal to the high and low prices during the session. This type of candlestick is indicative of a bullish trend as the candle is found in an uptrend. The short body of the candlestick indicates that the open and close prices of the BlackBerry stock were quite close to one another.

BlackBerry stock price after marking its new 52-week high in November 2021 has been in a descending wedge pattern. The BlackBerry stock price tried to break out of the declining pattern twice, but got rejected by the sellers. This shows that the upper trendline of the descending wedge trend is acting as a major resistance for the stock as can be seen on the daily time frame chart. It also acts as a distribution phase as whenever the stock reaches the upper trendline of the declining pattern sellers push back the stock causing it to go into a downtrend.

If the BlackBerry stock price breaks out of the declining wedge pattern from above then it may start its uptrend and reach its previous glory. But for this to happen, buyers will need to come to the rescue of the stock and help it to break out from its descending wedge pattern.
