CLB Signals & Forecast
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. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Core Laboratories NV 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 $16.87. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $16.03. 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.

Trading Expectations (CLB) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 8th
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 8th we expect Core Laboratories NV to open at $16.17, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $15.50 and $16.66, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.576 (+/-3.58%) up or down from last closing price. If Core Laboratories NV takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.16% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $16.99 (5.66%) than the support at $14.95 (7.03%), 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.
