UNTY Signals & Forecast
The Unity Bancorp stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $26.79 and $27.21. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, April 11, 2024, and so far it has risen 6.27%. 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). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Volume fell during the last trading day while the price increased. This causes a divergence and may be considered as an early warning, but it may also not.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Unity Bancorp stock
Unity Bancorp finds support from accumulated volume at $27.38 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

Trading Expectations (UNTY) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 24th
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 24th we expect Unity Bancorp to open at $27.60, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $26.95 and $28.31, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.676 (+/-2.45%) up or down from last closing price. If Unity Bancorp takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.89% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $27.70 (0.25%) than the support at $27.38 (0.90%), 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 Unity Bancorp stock A Buy?
