IDEX Corporation Stock Forecast
Evaluation of IDEX Corporation stock downgraded after the last trading session.
(Updated on May 03, 2024)
The IDEX Corporation stock price fell by -0.0952% on the last day (Friday, 3rd May 2024) from $220.63 to $220.42. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.45% from a day low at $219.23 to a day high of $222.41. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -2.92% for this period. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -12 thousand shares and in total, 389 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $85.74 million.
The stock is at the lower part of a wide and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $215.97 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect IDEX Corporation stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $214.01 and $242.56 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

IEX Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The IDEX Corporation 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 $221.53 and $233.81. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, March 21, 2024, and so far it has fallen -10.35%. 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 fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 6th we expect IDEX Corporation to open at $220.69, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $216.31 and $224.53, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$4.11 (+/-1.86%) up or down from last closing price.
