First Savings Financial Group Stock Forecast

First Savings Financial Group stock upgraded from Sell Candidate to Hold/Accumulate after Friday trading session.
(Updated on Apr 26, 2024)

FSFG Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, April 18, 2024, and so far it has risen 8.65%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). First Savings Financial Group has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The First Savings Financial Group stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $16.10. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $15.57. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for First Savings Financial Group stock

First Savings Financial Group finds support from accumulated volume at $15.21 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

Our recommended stop-loss: $15.28 (-3.98%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 6 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (FSFG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 29th

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 29th we expect First Savings Financial Group to open at $15.80, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $15.44 and $16.40, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.482 (+/-3.03%) up or down from last closing price. If First Savings Financial Group takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.05% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $16.51 (3.72%) than the support at $15.21 (4.45%), 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.

Is First Savings Financial Group stock A Buy?

First Savings Financial Group holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate.

We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Sell to a Hold/Accumulate candidate.
