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 $47.68. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $41.08. 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 sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, April 09, 2024, and so far it has fallen -11.22%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
