Ecovyst Inc. Stock Forecast
Weaker technical forecast for Ecovyst Inc. as stock downgraded to Sell Candidate.
(Updated on May 03, 2024)
The Ecovyst Inc. stock price fell by -1.90% on the last day (Friday, 3rd May 2024) from $9.99 to $9.80. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.28% from a day low at $9.65 to a day high of $10.16. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -1.51% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -654 thousand shares and in total, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $10.57 million.
The stock lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $9.47 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 8.71% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $10.30 and $12.53 at the end of this 3-month period.

ECVT Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 30, 2024, and so far it has risen 3.92%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Ecovyst Inc. 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 $10.19. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $9.78. 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. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Ecovyst Inc. stock
On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $9.18 and $9.16. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Ecovyst Inc. finds support just below today's level at $9.18. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $9.16 and $9.12.
This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $0.510 between high and low, or 5.28%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.47%.
Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.
Trading Expectations (ECVT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 6th
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 6th we expect Ecovyst Inc. to open at $9.87, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $9.45 and $10.15, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.345 (+/-3.52%) up or down from last closing price. If Ecovyst Inc. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.05% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $9.99 (1.94%) than the support at $9.18 (6.33%), 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 Ecovyst Inc. stock A Buy?
Ecovyst Inc. holds several negative signals and we believe that it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We, therefore, hold a negative evaluation of this stock. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Sell candidate.
