The Path for UiPath Could Be Headed Toward Single Digits

The shares are plunging after reduced guidance.

UiPath (PATH) offers "a robotic process automation tool for large-scale end-to-end automation." This sounds like a business we should be looking at but are the charts in agreement?

The shares plunged on Wednesday after the robotic process automation software company lowered its fiscal 2023 guidance, so let's check.

The On-Balance-Volume (OBV) line is pointed down into September and tells us that sellers of PATH are more aggressive than buyers. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator is bearish.
