Arbutus Biopharma Stock Forecast

Sell candidate since Jun 22, 2026

The Arbutus Biopharma Corporation stock price fell by -0.659% on the last day (Monday, 22nd Jun 2026) from $4.55 to $4.52. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 7.25% from a day low at $4.47 to a day high of $4.79. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 6.35% over the past 2 weeks.

The stock is moving within a wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Arbutus Biopharma Corporation stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $4.05 and $4.63 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

ABUS Signals & Forecast

There are mixed signals in the stock today. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, June 18, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.659%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely. The Arbutus Biopharma Corporation 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 $4.39 and $4.37. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals.

Trading Expectations (ABUS) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 23rd

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 23rd we expect Arbutus Biopharma Corporation to open at $4.59, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $4.43 and $4.61, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.180 (+/-4.07%) up or down from last closing price. If Arbutus Biopharma Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.07% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $4.53 (0.22%) than the support at $4.42 (2.21%), 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.
