Hold candidate since Aug 05, 2026

The Cohu stock price fell by -2.10% on the last day (Wednesday, 5th Aug 2026) from $52.84 to $51.73. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.19% from a day low at $50.50 to a day high of $53.12. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -5.96% for this period. Volume has increased on the last day by 127 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $57.40 million.

The stock lies in the middle of a very wide and weak rising trend in the short term and a further rise within the trend is signaled.

COHU Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, July 29, 2026, and so far it has risen 31.49%. 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). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Cohu stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $56.63. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $47.09. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Cohu stock

Cohu finds support from accumulated volume at $50.97 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "high risk".

Trading Expectations (COHU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 6th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 6th we expect Cohu to open at $51.78, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $49.25 and $54.21, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$4.97 (+/-10.09%) up or down from last closing price. If Cohu takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 10.09% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $50.97 (1.47%) than the resistance at $54.94 (6.21%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
