(Updated on September 16, 2021)

The Apple stock price fell by -0.16% on the last day (Thursday, 16th Sep 2021) from $149.03 to $148.79. During the day the stock fluctuated 1.19% from a day low at $147.22 to a day high of $148.97. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -2.44% loss for the last 2 weeks. 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 -14 million shares and in total, 68 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $10.10 billion.

The stock lies in the lower part of a strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $147.82 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 12.51% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $166.31 and $178.50 at the end of this 3-month period.

Signals & Forecast

There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Apple stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term moving averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $150.52 and $149.21. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, September 07, 2021, and so far it has fallen -5.04%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 months 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.
