In the StockTalk posted Monday 4/16 before market opened, I pointed out that AAPL stock price faced the first real serious challenge since the uptrend started on 12/5/2011.
I must admit that although I did expect AAPL to go down, but certainly did not expect its price to drop so quickly. As of 4/23 close, it is down 5.5% since close of 4/13 vs S&P 500 which is down 1.3%.
The following daily chart shows AAPL has a indecisive doji pattern on 4/23 and is also near support.

AAPL will report earnings after market close today (4/24). So one of the most anticipated earnings announcement is less that 12 hours away, and the earnings results may determine the direction of AAPL’s next move. Good luck to every bulls and bears
