SYF Support and Resistance Levels

Price is being turned away at a ceiling near $80.35 and starting to slide. On the weekly chart, the next floor below sits near $64.66 — about 18% away.

  • Traders commonly watch $64.66 as a target (its 50% retracement) — think of it as a sensible next stop, not a guarantee.
  • That floor is the first place the slide might steady — worth watching how price behaves as it gets there.
  • There's nothing to act on yet — the spot to watch is right at the $80.35 ceiling, where price is testing it now, not out here in the slide. Chasing once price pulls away tends to be worse odds.

Nearest auto-detected support sits near $70.90, resistance near $79.54. These are chart/swing-derived levels, not formula pivots.
