Weaker technical forecast for Hochschild Mining Plc as stock downgraded to Hold/Accumulate.
(Updated on May 08, 2024)

HOC.L Signals & Forecast

The Hochschild Mining Plc stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately £153.91. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately £141.00. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, May 03, 2024, and so far it has fallen 0%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell on the last day without any changes to the price. This does not cause any direct divergence but may be an early warning and a possible "turning point". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 9th we expect Hochschild Mining Plc to open at £151.20, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £146.01 and £156.39, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£5.19 (+/-3.43%) up or down from last closing price. If Hochschild Mining Plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.87% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at £151.00 (0.13%) than the resistance at £153.00 (1.19%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..

Is Hochschild Mining Plc stock A Buy?

Hochschild Mining Plc holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.

Current score: 0.000 Hold/Accumulate Downgraded

Zero in score indicates that our system is expecting high volatility and risk for the following trading day. Given the latest developments, we cannot determine the next direction as it may go both ways.
