Medtronic plc stock upgraded to Buy Candidate.
(Updated on Mar 27, 2024)

Buy candidate since Mar 27, 2024 PDF

The Medtronic plc stock price gained 3.85% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 27th Mar 2024), rising from $83.70 to $86.92. It has now gained 3 days in a row. It will be exciting to see whether it manages to continue gaining or take a minor break for the next few days. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.48% from a day low at $84.10 to a day high of $87.03. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 2.16% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 4 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 8 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $713.47 million.

The stockis at the upper part of a narrow and horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $87.12 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Medtronic plc stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $81.55 and $85.60 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners. 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.

MDT Signals & Forecast

The Medtronic plc stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $84.07 and $84.63. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, March 22, 2024, and so far it has risen 4.62%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Medtronic plc stock

Medtronic plc finds support from accumulated volume at $85.85 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this stock. During the last day, the stock moved $2.93 between high and low, or 3.48%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.50%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $83.26 (-4.21%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 3 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (MDT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 28th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 28th we expect Medtronic plc to open at $86.02, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $85.59 and $88.25, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.33 (+/-1.53%) up or down from last closing price. If Medtronic plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.05% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $86.97 (0.06%) than the support at $85.85 (1.23%), 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.
