Buy or Hold candidate since Mar 20, 2024 Gain 0.72% PDF

The Moody's Corporation stock price gained 0.715% on the last trading day (Thursday, 28th Mar 2024), rising from $390.24 to $393.03. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.12% from a day low at $391.16 to a day high of $395.53. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.51% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 85 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 552 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $217.05 million.

The stockis at the upper part of a horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $396.05 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Moody's Corporation stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $374.07 and $401.41 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

Trading Expectations (MCO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 1st

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 1st we expect Moody's Corporation to open at $393.24, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $386.56 and $399.50, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$6.47 (+/-1.65%) up or down from last closing price. If Moody's Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.29% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $395.62 (0.66%) than the support at $382.50 (2.68%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
