Xencor Stock Forecast
Green day on Friday for Xencor
(Updated on May 17, 2024)
The Xencor stock price gained 2.54% on the last trading day (Friday, 17th May 2024), rising from $22.46 to $23.03. It has now gained 3 days in a row. It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.25% from a day low at $22.30 to a day high of $23.47. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -4.48% for this period. Volume fell on the last day by -630 thousand shares and in total, 646 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $14.88 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.
The stock lies the upper part of a very wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $23.90 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -10.65% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $15.49 and $21.36 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

XNCR Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Xencor stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $22.07 and $21.22. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, May 14, 2024, and so far it has risen 13.11%. 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). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

Trading Expectations (XNCR) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 20th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect Xencor to open at $22.93, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $21.71 and $24.35, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.32 (+/-5.74%) up or down from last closing price. If Xencor takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 11.48% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $23.09 (0.26%) than the support at $22.85 (0.78%), 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 Xencor stock A Buy?
Several short-term signals are positive, despite the stock being in a falling trend, we conclude that the current level may hold a buying opportunity as there is a fair chance for stock to perform well in the short-term.
