Baidu Stock Forecast

On Thursday, Baidu stock price gained an impressive 7.12%
(Updated on May 02, 2024)

BIDU Signals & Forecast

The Baidu 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 $103.61 and $102.60. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, and so far it has risen 18.37%. 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 Baidu stock

Baidu finds support from accumulated volume at $110.59 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 $4.78 between high and low, or 4.44%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 3.29%.

The Baidu stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (76). Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but since the stock has broken the trend up, the chance for a major correction due to high RSI is very small as the stock will find support at the trend broken.

Our recommended stop-loss: $107.86 (-3.48%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. The RSI14 is 76 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 11 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (BIDU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 3rd

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 3rd we expect Baidu to open at $110.69, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $108.52 and $114.98, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$3.23 (+/-2.89%) up or down from last closing price. If Baidu takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.79% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $112.36 (0.55%) than the support at $110.59 (1.04%), 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 Baidu stock A Buy?

Baidu holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.

Current score: 0.000 Hold/Accumulate Unchanged

Zero in score indicates that our system is expecting high volatility and risk for the following trading day. Given the latest developments, we cannot determine the next direction as it may go both ways.
