The stock has broken the wide and weak rising short-term trend down. This signalizes a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning about a possible trend shift.

APWC Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Asia Pacific Wire & Cable Corp Ltd 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 $1.36 and $1.36. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, April 12, 2024, and so far it has fallen -7.79%. 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). Asia Pacific Wire & Cable Corp Ltd 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". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
