Hooker Furniture Corporation Stock Forecast
Evaluation of Hooker Furniture Corporation stock downgraded after the last trading session.
(Updated on Apr 25, 2024)
The Hooker Furniture Corporation stock price fell by -3.94% on the last day (Thursday, 25th Apr 2024) from $18.00 to $17.29. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.11% from a day low at $17.03 to a day high of $17.90. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -17.59% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 14 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 46 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $802.46 thousand.
The stock has broken the very wide and falling short-term trend down. Firstly a stronger fallrate is indicated, but false breaks and "sell-off" may occur. However, a further fall is realistic and any reactions back to the breaking point ($17.46) are considered to be a "second chance" to get out. According to the fan-theory $12.73 will represent the new bottom line of the next trend, but it is far too early to say this for certain.

HOFT Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Hooker Furniture Corporation stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $18.10 and $21.63. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, March 28, 2024, and so far it has fallen -27.99%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Hooker Furniture Corporation gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs".

Trading Expectations (HOFT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 26th
For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 26th we expect Hooker Furniture Corporation to open at $17.41, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $16.42 and $18.16, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.87 (+/-5.01%) up or down from last closing price. If Hooker Furniture Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 10.03% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $18.15, some $0.86 (4.97%) from the current price of $17.29, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.
