Graco Stock Forecast

Buy or Hold candidate since Jul 23, 2026 Gain 2.10%

The Graco Inc stock price fell by -0.763% on the last day (Friday, 31st Jul 2026) from $79.99 to $79.38. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.15% from a day low at $79.01 to a day high of $79.92. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 6.42% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 19 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, 1 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $88.23 million.

The stock is moving within a wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Graco Inc stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $73.25 and $82.38 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.

GGG Signals & Forecast

The Graco Inc 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 further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $80.08. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $75.84. 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 a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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 Tuesday, July 28, 2026, and so far it has fallen -3.50%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

Trading Expectations (GGG) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 3rd

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 3rd we expect Graco Inc to open at $79.44, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $78.49 and $80.27, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.78 (+/-2.27%) up or down from last closing price. If Graco Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.27% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $79.50 (0.15%) than the support at $77.75 (2.05%), 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.
