Ross Stores Stock Forecast
Red day on Wednesday for Ross Stores
(Updated on May 01, 2024)
The Ross Stores stock price fell by -1.34% on the last day (Wednesday, 1st May 2024) from $129.55 to $127.82. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.53% from a day low at $127.77 to a day high of $129.73. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -3.74% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 38 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $415.53 million.
The stock lies in the lower of a falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $127.18 is broken, it will firstly indicate a stronger fall rate. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -10.01% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $114.45 and $125.34 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.

ROST Signals & Forecast
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. The Ross Stores 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 $131.41 and $139.28. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, February 28, 2024, and so far it has fallen -15.04%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Ross Stores stock
There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 2nd we expect Ross Stores to open at $128.44, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $125.41 and $130.23, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.41 (+/-1.88%) up or down from last closing price.
