ITC.BO Signals & Forecast
The ITC Limited 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 ₹431.42. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately ₹429.93. 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. 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 Wednesday, May 08, 2024, and so far it has fallen -2.19%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (ITC.BO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 17th
For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 17th we expect ITC Limited to open at ₹428.93, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between ₹423.21 and ₹439.29, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-₹8.04 (+/-1.86%) up or down from last closing price. If ITC Limited takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.73% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at ₹433.20 (0.45%) than the support at ₹422.40 (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.
