DIT Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The AMCON Distributing Company 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 $188.76 and $195.38. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, January 19, 2024, and so far it has fallen -12.15%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). AMCON Distributing Company gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for AMCON Distributing Company stock
There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.

Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.
Trading Expectations (DIT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 1st
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 1st we expect AMCON Distributing Company to open at $184.44, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $178.59 and $189.41, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$5.41 (+/-2.94%) up or down from last closing price. If AMCON Distributing Company takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.88% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $190.00, some $6.00 (3.26%) from the current price of $184.00, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.
