AI market story
Updated 2026-10-28 09:18 UTC+8Alibaba leans bearish as the 100 level comes into focus
Alibaba trades at 100.12, down 7.83% over 5 days and 6.9% over 20 days, below its 20-day average of 106.57 and 50-day of 110.74. Daily RSI has fallen to 33, MACD sits below its signal with a third day of widening histogram, and the lower Bollinger band at 98.31 marks nearby support.
Price journey: up or down lately?
It has been falling. The last day was roughly flat at plus 0.04%, but the 5-day drop is 7.83% and the 20-day drop is 6.9%, with price at 100.12 well under the 20-day high of 112.48.
Trend: which way is the bigger picture pointing?
The broader direction is bearish. Price sits below both the 20-day average at 106.57 and the 50-day at 110.74, and MACD is below its signal, so the short, medium and long-term technical picture all lean lower.
Momentum: gaining or losing strength?
Momentum is weak and the bearish side is building. Daily RSI fell from 46 five days ago to 33, and the MACD histogram has widened for three straight days, so downside momentum is still accumulating.
