Intuitive Surgical Stock Forecast
Red day on Friday for Intuitive Surgical
(Updated on Apr 19, 2024)
The Intuitive Surgical stock price fell by -1.69% on the last day (Friday, 19th Apr 2024) from $372.63 to $366.34. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 6.72% from a day low at $364.17 to a day high of $388.65. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -5.68% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 2 million shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days.

The stock has broken the horizontal trend down. Breaks like this are often followed by swift and strong movements, and any correction down to the breakline at approximately $381.86 is considered to be a "second chance" to get out before further fall. It is, however, important to note that false breaks may appear and that the price may move back into the horizontal trend. A break on increasing volume is considered to be more significant and reliable than breaks on low volume.

ISRG Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Intuitive Surgical 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 $378.02 and $387.97. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, March 27, 2024, and so far it has fallen -8.44%. 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). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
A sell signal from a double top formation was found on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 with a target of $375.65. Despite whether the objective of the signal formation has been reached the stock may continue to fall.

Trading Expectations (ISRG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 22nd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 22nd we expect Intuitive Surgical to open at $373.05, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $356.25 and $376.43, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$10.09 (+/-2.75%) up or down from last closing price. If Intuitive Surgical takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.51% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $370.07, some $3.73 (1.02%) from the current price of $366.34, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.
