BAC Signals & Forecast

Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Bank of America 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 $35.77 and $36.29. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals.

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 19th we expect Bank of America Corporation to open at $35.64, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $34.92 and $36.59, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.84 (+/-2.35%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $35.79 (0.10%) than the support at $35.23 (1.47%), 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.
