Shares of Meta Platforms Inc., an American multinational holding company owning a technology conglomerate and the largest social network, Facebook, are trading at 544.00.

On the daily chart, a corrective trend is forming, within which the price is moving slightly above the support line of a downward channel with dynamic boundaries of 655.00–515.00.

On the four-hour chart, the price has almost reached the previous trend low of 519.00 and is ready to decline within a downward wave after filling the price gap of 582.18–529.92.
