Buy or Hold candidate since Jul 30, 2026 Gain 10.94%

The Quaker Chemical Corporation stock price gained 1.13% on the last trading day (Monday, 10th Aug 2026), rising from $169.95 to $171.87. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.61% from a day low at $167.75 to a day high of $172.13. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 13.37% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -49 thousand shares and in total, 119 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $20.47 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.

The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $174.84 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 16.30% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $176.72 and $203.34 at the end of this 3-month period.

KWR Signals & Forecast

The Quaker Chemical 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 $168.82 and $155.98. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. 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. 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, August 04, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.80%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Quaker Chemical Corporation stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $160.63 and $160.52. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Quaker Chemical Corporation finds support just below today's level at $160.63. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $160.52 and $140.69.

This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $4.38 between high and low, or 2.61%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.86%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $166.14 (-3.34%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 4 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (KWR) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 11th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 11th we expect Quaker Chemical Corporation to open at $170.58, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $168.31 and $175.43, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$7.12 (+/-4.23%) up or down from last closing price. If Quaker Chemical Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.23% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $173.26 (0.81%) than the support at $160.63 (6.54%), 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.
