FTI Consulting Inc Stock Forecast

FTI Consulting Inc stock upgraded to Strong Buy Candidate.
(Updated on Apr 25, 2024)

FCN Signals & Forecast

The FTI Consulting Inc 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 $211.01 and $207.58. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, February 22, 2024, and so far it has fallen -2.87%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Tuesday, April 16, 2024 in the short-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the stock in question.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for FTI Consulting Inc stock

FTI Consulting Inc finds support from accumulated volume at $211.25 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this stock. During the last day, the stock moved $17.17 between high and low, or 8.13%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.79%.

Since the FTI Consulting Inc has been rising for 6 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the stock is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.

Our recommended stop-loss: $204.46 (-5.04%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 44 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (FCN) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 26th

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 26th we expect FTI Consulting Inc to open at $218.32, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $210.68 and $219.94, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$4.63 (+/-2.15%) up or down from last closing price. If FTI Consulting Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.30% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $216.10 (0.37%) than the support at $211.25 (1.89%), 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 FTI Consulting Inc stock A Buy?

FTI Consulting Inc holds several positive signals and is within a weak rising trend. As the old saying says, "Let the trend be your friend.'". We therefore consider it to be a good choice at these current levels and we are expecting further gains during the next 3 months. We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Strong Buy candidate.
