UL Signals & Forecast

The Unilever PLC 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 $50.49 and $48.98. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, and so far it has risen 11.62%. 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. The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Monday, March 11, 2024 for the short-term and also have Golden Star Signal for the medium-term dated Friday, January 26, 2024.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the stock in question.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Unilever PLC stock

Unilever PLC finds support from accumulated volume at $50.92 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $0.668 between high and low, or 1.30%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 0.98%.

The Unilever PLC stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (81). Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but since the stock has broken the trend up, the chance for a major correction due to high RSI is very small as the stock will find support at the trend broken. Since the Unilever PLC has been rising for 6 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. As we cannot be certain with regards to the size of the reaction, we urge caution.

Our recommended stop-loss: $50.38 (-2.88%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. The RSI14 is 81 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 11 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (UL) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 2nd

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 2nd we expect Unilever PLC to open at $51.81, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $51.21 and $52.53, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.662 (+/-1.28%) up or down from last closing price. If Unilever PLC takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.55% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $50.92, some $0.95 (1.83%) from the current price of $51.87, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
