BABA Breakout Watch: Close Above 171 Opens Path to 190

429
Alibaba (BABA) ripped higher from late August and topped near $190 in early October. Since then, price has been correcting inside a descending channel while holding above the 60-day moving average. Short-term momentum has cooled (MACD histogram negative), but the broader structure remains constructive: buyers defended the $158.00 demand zone and price is compressing toward the channel’s upper boundary.

Primary path: I’m looking for a daily close above ~$171.00 (break and hold over the channel top / short-term resistance) to signal a continuation of the prior uptrend. If confirmed with rising volume, the next waypoint sits near the upper band/near-term supply around $175.00–$180.00, followed by a retest of the October highs into $190.00–$191.50. That area remains the key supply zone where the last rally stalled.

Alternative: If buyers fail and $158.00 gives way, the corrective leg likely extends. A decisive break of that floor would put the lower channel line in play and opens room toward the next major support clustered around the 120-day context near $140.00. For positioning, longs can lean on $158.00 as the clean invalidation; below there, the bullish thesis is off the table.
