Hold candidate since Apr 17, 2019 Loss -29.77% PDF

The MFA Financial Inc stock price fell by -0.603% on the last day (Monday, 20th Apr 2020) from $18.25 to $18.14. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 4.22% from a day low at $17.99 to a day high of $18.75. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -31% for this period. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -22 thousand shares and in total, 30 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $535.77 thousand.

The stock is at the lower part of a narrow and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $18.11 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect MFA Financial Inc stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $18.25 and $18.43 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.
