AFI.NZ Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, June 11, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.130%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Australian Foundation Investment Co Ltd 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 $7.74 and $7.83. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell along with the price during the last trading day which is technical positive. One should, however, note that this stock may have low liquidity in periods, which increases the general risk. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.

Trading Expectations (AFI.NZ) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 17th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 17th we expect Australian Foundation Investment Company Limited to open at $7.71, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $7.66 and $7.76, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0546 (+/-0.71%) up or down from last closing price. If Australian Foundation Investment Company Limited takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.42% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $7.70 (0.13%) than the resistance at $7.82 (1.43%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
