Australian Foundation Investment Co Fund Forecast
Australian Foundation Investment Co fund price up 0.140% on Friday
(Updated on Jun 28, 2024)
The Australian Foundation Investment Co fund price gained 0.140% on the last trading day (Friday, 28th Jun 2024), rising from A$7.14 to A$7.15. During the last trading day the fund fluctuated 0.702% from a day low at A$7.12 to a day high of A$7.17. The price has fallen in 4 of the last 10 days and is down by -0.14% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 241 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 511 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately A$3.65 million.
The fund is moving within a narrow and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Australian Foundation Investment Co fund with a 90% probability to be traded between A$6.89 and A$7.06 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 funds seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Funds turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners. 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.

AFI.AX Signals & Forecast
Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Australian Foundation Investment Co fund 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 A$7.15 and A$7.18. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, May 16, 2024, and so far it has fallen -1.52%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.

Trading Expectations (AFI.AX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 1st
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 1st we expect Australian Foundation Investment Co Ltd-Fund to open at A$7.15, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between A$7.10 and A$7.20, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-A$0.0472 (+/-0.66%) up or down from last closing price. If Australian Foundation Investment Co Ltd-Fund takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.32% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at A$7.16 (0.14%) than the support at A$7.14 (0.14%), 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.
Is Australian Foundation Investment Co Ltd-Fund fund A Buy?
Australian Foundation Investment Co holds several negative signals and is within a narrow and falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this fund.
