PayPal Holdings is a payments company that enables consumers and merchants to send, receive, and settle money online and in apps. The service turns checkout into a few consistent steps and gives sellers tools to accept funds, handle disputes, and track activity. Risk controls and identity checks run in the background, so transactions feel quick while remaining governed. Partnerships place PayPal inside marketplaces, storefronts, and mobile platforms, while the wallet keeps payment choices in one place for the user. The model is direct: connect buyers and sellers, clear funds, and keep records straight. Features arrive in measured updates, which helps large merchants adopt changes without interrupting sales. In the broader fintech ecosystem, PayPal focuses on reliable movement of money rather than flashy experiments.
TTM is calculated as the sum of the four most recently completed quarters. This is a standard approach when monthly or real-time data is not available.
PayPal Holdings's Technical Indicators Summary
PYPL is exhibiting a generally bearish profile as it trades below all major moving averages, including the 200-day, reflecting sustained downward pressure.

The ADX indicates a moderately strong trend, supporting the prevailing bearish momentum. Despite a relatively stable volatility indicated by the ATR, volume trends measured by OBV show continued selling interest. Together, these factors highlight persistent downside pressure with no immediate signs of reversal, underscoring the current bearish technical outlook for PYPL.
