Green day on Thursday for CSX Corporation stock after gaining 1.07%
(Updated on Apr 25, 2024)
The CSX Corporation stock price gained 1.07% on the last trading day (Thursday, 25th Apr 2024), rising from $33.67 to $34.03. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.64% from a day low at $33.64 to a day high of $34.20. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -3.95% for this period. Volume fell on the last day by -10 million shares and in total, 12 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $407.84 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 in the lower of a wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $33.64 is broken, it will firstly indicate a stronger fall rate. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -5.24% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $31.87 and $35.21 at the end of this 3-month period.

CSX Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, April 24, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.07%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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 CSX Corporation 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 $34.28 and $36.23. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (CSX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 26th
For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 26th we expect CSX Corporation to open at $33.96, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $33.39 and $34.67, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.640 (+/-1.88%) up or down from last closing price. If CSX Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.76% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $34.16 (0.38%) than the support at $33.67 (1.06%), 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.
