AZN.L Signals & Forecast

Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The AstraZeneca PLC 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 £10,411.14 and £10,170.74. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, February 12, 2024, and so far it has risen 13.06%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for AstraZeneca PLC stock

AstraZeneca PLC finds support from accumulated volume at £10,450.00 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

Trading Expectations (AZN.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 28th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 28th we expect AstraZeneca PLC to open at £10,648.00, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £10,567.95 and £10,916.05, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£174.05 (+/-1.62%) up or down from last closing price. If AstraZeneca PLC takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.24% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at £10,830.00 (0.82%) than the support at £10,450.00 (2.72%), 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.
