Market Trend Overview for AMKR
One model, two time views: what the market looks like right now, and where the larger trend is heading over time.
This model looks at how prices behave over time to describe the current market environment. It focuses on whether price is moving steadily, stalling, or losing momentum, and checks both short-term and weekly trends for confirmation. The goal is not to predict exact prices, but to help understand when conditions are supportive, risky, or unclear.
Current Market Context (Short-Term)
As of 2026-02-06 (ET), AMKR is moving sideways. Price at 49.36 is moving between support near 49.11 and resistance near 52.56. There is no clear direction right now. View Support & Resistance from Options
Why the market looks this way?
Prices have moved back and forth over recent sessions without making steady progress. Trend signals have changed frequently, which suggests the market is stuck in a range. In this environment, chasing moves in either direction is less reliable.
Longer-Term Market Trend (Mid to Long Term)
Shows the bigger market trend, how strong it is, and where risks may start to build over the next few weeks or months. — Updated as of 2026-02-06 (ET)
As of 2026-02-06, AMKR is moving sideways with low volatility. Over the longer term, the trend remains bullish.
AMKR last closed at 49.36. The price is about 3.5 ATR above its recent average price (47.10), and the market is currently in a sideways market with low volatility.
Price is moving in a tight range. This often leads to a stronger move once the range breaks, increasing one-sided risk.
Trend score: 40 out of 100. Overall alignment is unclear. The market is currently in a sideways phase with tightening price movement. The longer-term trend is still positive, but short-term signals are not yet confirming it.
Price is far from its recent average (about 3.5 ATR away). Chasing the move at this level carries a higher risk of a pullback.
A key downside level is near 39.35. If price falls below this area, the current upward trend would likely weaken or break.
On 2026-02-05, trend conditions deteriorated, suggesting that moves in the prior direction became less dependable.
[2026-02-04] Trading activity picked up, but price progress remained limited.
Recent bars show mixed price behavior without a clear shift in structural quality or efficiency.
Some late-day positioning was observed, but it lacked strong overnight commitment.

Structure Analysis
AMKR Short positioning looks normal. Current days to cover is 1.8 trading days, meaning short positions could unwind at a normal pace. Short covering is likely to have a normal impact on price moves.
Bull Trap Structural Risk
