During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.64% from a day low at $25.02 to a day high of $25.68. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days and is down by -5.38% for this period.

The stock lies in the middle of a falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled.

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.

KAR Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, November 10, 2025, and so far it has risen 0.96%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The KAR Auction Services Inc stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $25.26 and $26.54. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 18th we expect KAR Auction Services Inc to open at $25.29, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $24.80 and $25.52, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.724 (+/-2.92%) up or down from last closing price. If KAR Auction Services Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.92% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $25.10 (0.24%) than the resistance at $26.06 (3.58%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
