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 $191.36 is broken, it will firstly indicate a stronger fall rate. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -4.56% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $182.63 and $214.17 at the end of this 3-month period.
EFX Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, March 10, 2023, and so far it has risen 2.30%. 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. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Equifax Inc 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 $199.41 and $205.31. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Equifax Inc stock

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 27th we expect Equifax Inc to open at $196.15, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $191.98 and $203.18, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$5.60 (+/-2.83%) up or down from last closing price.
