Facebook opened the year 2022 with a share price of $337, after it ranged for the most part of Q4 2021. Through the last quarter of 2021, the price ranged between $299 at the lower end and $353 at the upper end. The first breakout to the downside occurred on January 24, 2022. This breakout only lasted for a few days and the price found its way back into the range. On February 2, 2022, the price closed at $323 which was still in the range.

However, on the next trading day (February 3, 2022), a gap-down occurred which made the share price open at $244. At this point, the price was outside of the range and a bearish movement had kicked in as a result of the gap-down. The price kept falling till it hit a new support level at $186. This fall wiped out the profit that was made between June 2020 till September 2021 (the month when the price reached an all-time high at $384). The last time the tech giant’s share price got this low was in April 2020.

On March 16, 2022, the price bounced off the support line. RSI indicates oversold positions on the weekly timeframe. Could this be the bull run investors in $FB have been waiting months for? If this bull run continues, the share price could go beyond a psychological level of $300 and hit $368.

Facebook Inc has been in the middle of a crisis for a while, which has negatively affected the share price since the beginning of September. On the 28th of September, Facebook Inc changed its name to “Meta Platform Inc”. There is a new technology named metaverse, which is termed surround-yourself technology, the CEO is committed to developing the technology, which I believe must be one of the reasons for the name change. The social network name is still called Facebook. Also, the leadership of Facebook Inc remains unchanged.

The metaverse brings the internet to life or is rendered in 3D. Zuckerberg has described it as a “virtual environment” you can go inside of, instead of just looking at it on a screen. People can meet, work and play, using virtual reality headsets, augmented reality glasses, smartphone apps, or other devices. It has been said that Facebook will spend $10billion this year on the new technology. RSI has shown two oversold positions in September and October on the 4hour chart, after the dip in September. An upward breakout of the trendline occurred this October before the dip continued to reach new support at $308.17. The price movement shows the bulls broke the trendline again. With the introduction of the metaverse, Facebook might begin a major bullish movement back to the all-time high at $384.33

The Daily chart shows it clearly that all profits made in the second half of this year have been lost as a result of the recent dip in September. Yesterday ended a bullish note as the Facebook name was changed to Meta.

The Facebook share price has been enjoying a smooth ride as the bulls were able to take the price to an all-time high in September. After the all-time high was reached at $384.33, the price fell to $338.90. For the past 4 trading days, the price has been consolidating around the support level at $338.90, but the unusual happened yesterday as there was an outage. This outage affected the three-platform owned by Mark Zuckerberg i.e. Whatsapp, Facebook, and Instagram for about 6hours. Bloomberg gathered that the global service outage that kept its social media apps offline for much of Monday on a problem with its network configuration, adding that it found no evidence that user data was compromised during the downtime. 

The $FB market opens at $335.75 yesterday and the price went as low as $322.25, but the market closed at $326.23. There is a rise in the pre-market price as the price is currently at $328.25. Taking a looking a weekly chart, the price was already overbought on the RSI, the outage only brought about a correction in price. The last 3 trading weeks show the price of $FB has been falling prior to the outage. A gap down occurred at the end of the second trading week in September, price is yet to retrace to the gap down. Also, yesterday’s opening price was after a gap down. Investors should be hopeful, as the price could retrace in the coming weeks to the second, then the first gap down.

The share price of $FB is currently at the lower region of the Bollinger bands. As normalcy is restored to the various platforms owned by Facebook Inc, we hope the price of $FB will begin to rise.

Facebook is an American online and social media and social networking service owned by Facebook Inc. In Facebook’s 17years of launch, the social networking site has about 2.85billion users as of 31st March 2021. $FB’s investors have had a rewarding year as the opening price was at $259.20. The price was able to reach $384.33 this September before a correction began. The correction has pushed the price lower to $340.65 at the close of the market yesterday. After the price reached a new all-time in June 2021 at $341.74, $FB share price has continued to rally. The new support level is around $341. The bears were able to push the price lower in July, but it was a fake-out of support at $341.

Despite RSI showing that the price has been overbought at three different times on the 4hr chart, there was an oversold indication in the past few days. The candlesticks still maintain the lower region of the Bollinger bands. There are tendencies the bulls might become very active soon, thereby appreciating the price of $FB. Since the acquisition of Whatsapp in 2014, Facebook has increased its price by a 5X growth rate. Also, price appreciated furthermore after the dark mode was launched on mobile devices. The share price might be boosted as Facebook expands the metaverse initiative with $50million.
