The Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock.

On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately 37.66€. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal.

Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 20th we expect Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. KGaA to open at 40.41€, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between 39.19€ and 41.73€, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-1.27€ (+/-3.15%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at 40.48€ (0.05%) than the support at 38.45€ (4.97%), 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.
