Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. Stock Forecast

Sell candidate since May 09, 2025 Gain 0.16%

The Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. stock price gained 1.19% on the last trading day (Friday, 16th May 2025), rising from $216.10 to $218.68. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.30% from a day low at $215.87 to a day high of $218.68. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 0.52% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -151 thousand shares and in total, 494 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $108.12 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The stock lies the upper part of a falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $219.93 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -3.66% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $194.58 and $211.88 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.

CHKP Signals & Forecast

The Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. 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 $217.62 and $217.30. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, May 07, 2025, and so far it has fallen -0.99%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 19th we expect Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. to open at $217.74, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $212.51 and $224.85, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$6.17 (+/-2.82%) up or down from last closing price.
