FMC Technologies Inc Stock Forecast
FMC Technologies Inc stock upgraded to Buy Candidate.
(Updated on Jul 02, 2024)
The FMC Technologies Inc stock price fell by -0.267% on the last day (Tuesday, 2nd Jul 2024) from $26.26 to $26.19. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.25% from a day low at $26.17 to a day high of $26.76. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 7.56% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 636 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $74.09 million.
The stock lies the upper part of a falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $26.34 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -4.48% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $22.95 and $25.16 at the end of this 3-month period. 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.

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.

Trading Expectations (FTI) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 3rd
For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 3rd we expect FMC Technologies Inc to open at $26.37, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $25.61 and $26.77, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.581 (+/-2.22%) up or down from last closing price. If FMC Technologies Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.44% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $26.36 (0.65%) than the support at $25.93 (0.99%), 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.
