Kimberly-Clark Corporation stock price up 1.28% on Wednesday
(Updated on Apr 24, 2024)

KMB Signals & Forecast

The Kimberly-Clark Corporation stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. 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. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $129.49 and $126.76. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, April 12, 2024, and so far it has risen 11.21%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Kimberly-Clark Corporation stock

Kimberly-Clark Corporation finds support from accumulated volume at $136.04 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock is usually traded at a good volume, and with minor daily changes, the risk is considered to be low. During the last day, the stock moved $3.76 (2.80%) between high and low. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.27%.

The Kimberly-Clark Corporation stock is extremely overbought on RSI14 (77). Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but since the stock has broken the trend up, the chance for a major correction due to high RSI is very small as the stock will find support at the trend broken.

Our recommended stop-loss: $133.70 (-2.96%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. The RSI14 is 77 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 8 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (KMB) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect Kimberly-Clark Corporation to open at $136.82, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $135.28 and $140.28, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.50 (+/-1.81%) up or down from last closing price. If Kimberly-Clark Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.63% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $136.04, some $1.74 (1.26%) from the current price of $137.78, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
