ALGN Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Align Technology 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 $304.74 and $314.19. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Tuesday, April 09, 2024, and so far it has fallen -14.50%. 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.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Align Technology stock
Align Technology finds support from accumulated volume at $273.90 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 $17.99 between high and low, or 6.38%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 5.61%.
Align Technology is oversold on RSI14 (21). Some stocks may drop long and hard while being oversold on RSI before turning, which increases the general risk.
Our recommended stop-loss: $268.18 (-5.03%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. Low RSI14 is 21 which reduces the risk some. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 15 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (ALGN) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 1st
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 1st we expect Align Technology to open at $288.13, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $269.77 and $294.99, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$12.61 (+/-4.47%) up or down from last closing price. If Align Technology takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 8.93% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $288.44 (2.15%) than the support at $273.90 (3.00%), 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.
