This signals Shopify’s competitive edge in capturing a greater share of the e-commerce market. Recently, SHOP has broken out above a trading range of $57-67 and after a brief pullback, it has bounced higher off the $67 support level. This price action indicates strength and suggests that the stock has found a strong base from which it can continue higher.
