How does the stock look chart-wise? (USD converted into euros) 📈📉
Currently, the share price is just under 33.50€. Here we have recently bounced 2 times at the support zone at just under 32.50€ and the bears could not break through this support zone. If this zone is approached again and the bears break through this zone, there would be a lot of room at the bottom and the next support would be at 26.80€.
Currently, the first resistance is at 34.50€. This must be overcome so that the share can continue to rise. The next resistance would be at 36.50€. If this is also sustainably overcome, we have the next thick resistance at just under €40. There it would be very exciting, because the price did not get through there several times.

How does the share look from a chart perspective? (USD converted to euros) 📈📉
Currently, the price here is about 14.30€. We recently had an important support zone here at €14.50, which is currently slightly undercut. If we do not come the share slowly back over here, the target would be the first support zone at 13.60 €. If this does not hold either, there is a lot of room to the downside. The next support would be at 10.50 €. If the share wins back the support zone at 14.50€, the first resistance would be at just under 15.80€. If this resistance is sustainably taken out, the next target is the resistance at 17.60€. After this mark, the resistance zone at 18.80€ is very important, as it was approached several times, but then the share was sold off directly.
My opinion:
As always, I find both stocks very very exciting. I couldn't say now which one would interest me more, as I find both segments extremely exciting. I will now continue to look at my mentioned zones and possibly enter in the short or long term. 👍🏽
Depending on that possibly also with leverage.
