Cna Financial Corp Stock Forecast
Stronger technical forecast for Cna Financial Corp stock price after Friday trading.
(Updated on Apr 26, 2024)
The Cna Financial Corp stock price gained 1.75% on the last trading day (Friday, 26th Apr 2024), rising from £131.40 to £133.70. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.75% from a day low at £131.60 to a day high of £135.21. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 0.3% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -1 million shares and in total, 14 million shares were bought and sold for approximately £1.90 billion. 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 stockhas broken the falling short-term trend up. Firstly a slower falling rate is indicated, but this may very well be an early signal of a trend shift. On the reaction, there will be support on the roof of the current trend broken, which is £129.73, a level that may pose a second chance to hit a runner. According to fan-theory £138.60 will be the next possible trend-top level and thereby pose a resistance level that may not be broken at the first attempt.

CNA.L Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The Cna Financial Corp 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 £132.04 and £129.21. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, April 05, 2024, and so far it has risen 7.78%. 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 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.

Trading Expectations (CNA.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 29th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 29th we expect Cna Financial Corp to open at £133.50, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £130.62 and £136.78, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£3.08 (+/-2.30%) up or down from last closing price. If Cna Financial Corp takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.60% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at £134.40 (0.52%) than the support at £130.75 (2.21%), 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 Cna Financial Corp stock A Buy?
Several short-term signals are positive and the break-up from the falling trend indicates a possible shift for a trend. We believe that the prices around the breaking point will indicate particularly good levels, but we also believe that the current level will hold a possible good buy level for the short-term period. We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Buy candidate.
