SNPS Synopsys, Inc. Common Stock
Synopsys, Inc. Common Stock (SNPS) trend channel, buy level and 3-month target on Trade The Path. Sector: Technology. Listed on NASDAQ. Levels below are fitted to this ticker's own swing highs and lows (Theil–Sen, log-price), then projected 3 months. If this ticker has no settled sample yet, treat the numbers as a geometric read, not a track record. Information only, not financial advice.
Mid-channel, falling on both timeframes
Price is between the two trend lines. Nothing to act on yet.
The next few months are read from the last 9 months, the stretch whose swings the lines actually follow, because the last 12 months alone do not contain enough turns to fit reliably (48% against 60%). The last 12 months stay as context: falling, −10% a year. The target of US$652.45 sits above the nearest ceiling (US$449.67, from the last 9 months), so reaching it means breaking a line this stock has repeatedly turned at. What would overturn this: a close below US$352.01 — the floor of the channel being read — after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.

What broke this trend
- The fall
- -43% from US$645.7930 July 2025 → 15 Sept 2026
- Whose problem it was
- This company1 of 9 Services-Prepackaged Software peers fell with it
- Does it resolve?
- Temporary falls like it have resolved on the record
- Regained so far
- 3%of what it lost
- What the record says
- 75% of 18 comparable falls came back, typically in 84 days measured on its own peer group
The trend broke in July 2025: price fell 43% from 645.79 to 367.70 by September 2026, and has regained 3% of that fall since. Its peers did not fall with it, so this was about the company rather than its sector. The wire that week: “Rosenblatt Maintains Buy on Synopsys, Raises Price Target to $650”. Falls like it have resolved: falls of about 43% here have come back to the old high 75% of the time (18 comparable falls), typically in 84 days. On that record the fall is treated as temporary, and the trend lines are fitted to the regime it created rather than through it. Priced from that: 652.45 within 82 days, reached 75% of the time in 18 comparable falls — about 0.90% a day held.
The buy and sell prices below are priced off this recovery rather than off the channel: it is the better expected return per day held once each is charged for the odds of working.

Priced from that: 652.45 within 82 days, reached 75% of the time in 18 comparable falls — about 0.90% a day held. The entry is today's price, not a dip level: the fall is behind it and the evidence measured is what these recoveries paid from here, so waiting for a lower entry would be waiting for something the record does not say is coming. Of 18 comparable falls in Services-Prepackaged Software, 75% were back at the old high within 84 days of the low, and the ones that got there gave up about 15% along the way — so expect to be underwater before it works. The target is the median level they regained, which is short of the old high of 645.79 because not all of them saw it again. It is a prediction and it is revised the same way any other is: if price loses its 50-day trend and stays below it, the recovery is treated as failed rather than delayed.
