Amazon's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Amazon is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $317.50 short put and a strike $312.50 long put offers a potential 33.33% return on risk over the next 12 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $317.50 by expiration. The full premium credit of $1.25 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $3.75 would be incurred if the stock dropped below the $312.50 long put strike price.
The 5-day moving average is moving up which suggests that the short-term momentum for Amazon is bullish and the probability of a rise in share price is higher if the stock starts trending.
The 20-day moving average is moving up which suggests that the medium-term momentum for Amazon is bullish.
The RSI indicator is at 43.64 level which suggests that the stock is neither overbought nor oversold at this time.

Amazon to face EU investigation over Luxembourg tax deal -FT
Mon, 06 Oct 2014 23:34:57 GMT
Reuters – UK Focus – The European Commission is set to begin a formal probe into allegations that Luxembourg allowed Amazon.com (NasdaqGS: AMZN – news) Inc to benefit illegally from state subsidies for its European operations for almost 10 years, the Financial Times reported on Monday. The investigation relates to favorable terms given to Amazon under a 2003 tax ruling, which cap its tax exposure to the Grand Duchy and limit the overall cost to less than 1 percent of the company's European income, the FT reported, citing people familiar with the case. The commission contends that Luxembourg permitted Amazon to misallocate gains within its corporate structure, in a way that fell short of standards expected of an arms-length transaction between corporate subsidiaries, the FT said. This allowed the company to reduce artificially its tax bill on a selective basis, the FT reported citing sources familiar with the initial investigation.
