New Oriental stock upgraded to Buy Candidate
(Updated on Jul 31, 2026)
The New Oriental stock price gained 4.08% on the last trading day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026), rising from $56.58 to $58.89. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 5.02% from a day low at $56.29 to a day high of $59.11. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 19.82% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -861 thousand shares and in total, 2 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $90.36 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.
Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect New Oriental stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $44.00 and $58.51 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
EDU Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The New Oriental 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 $53.33 and $48.53. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, June 25, 2026, and so far it has risen 32.52%. 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.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for New Oriental stock
New Oriental finds support from accumulated volume at $58.58 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
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 $2.82 between high and low, or 5.02%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 6.25%.
The New Oriental stock is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some stocks may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the stock manages to break the trend before that occurs.
Our recommended stop-loss: $57.18 (-2.90%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. The RSI14 is 80 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 25 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (EDU) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect New Oriental Education & Technology Group Inc to open at $58.09, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $57.90 and $59.88, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.98 (+/-3.42%) up or down from last closing price. If New Oriental Education & Technology Group Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.42% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $58.58, some $0.310 (0.53%) from the current price of $58.89, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
