ATSG Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, March 18, 2024, and so far it has risen 7.30%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Air Transport Services Group 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 $12.64 and $12.81. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (ATSG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 22nd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 22nd we expect Air Transport Services Group to open at $12.65, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $12.12 and $13.16, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.515 (+/-4.08%) up or down from last closing price. If Air Transport Services Group takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 8.15% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $12.82 (1.42%) than the support at $12.19 (3.56%), 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.
