(Updated on May 01, 2024)

KMX Signals & Forecast

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. The CarMax 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 $69.04 and $77.31. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, March 28, 2024, and so far it has fallen -22.84%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for CarMax Inc stock

There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.

This stock may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $2.12 between high and low, or 3.16%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.38%.

Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.

Trading Expectations (KMX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 2nd

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 2nd we expect CarMax Inc to open at $67.79, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $65.04 and $69.38, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.17 (+/-3.23%) up or down from last closing price. If CarMax Inc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.46% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $71.41, some $4.20 (6.25%) from the current price of $67.21, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.

Is CarMax Inc stock A Buy?

CarMax Inc holds several negative signals and is within a very wide and falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this stock. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Sell candidate.

Current score: -2.209 Sell Candidate Downgraded
