Red day on Wednesday for McGrath RentCorp
(Updated on Jun 17, 2026)
The McGrath RentCorp stock price fell by -0.281% on the last day (Wednesday, 17th Jun 2026) from $114.08 to $113.76. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.08% from a day low at $112.50 to a day high of $115.96. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 6.38% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -45 thousand shares and in total, 155 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $17.63 million.
The stock is moving within a wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect McGrath RentCorp stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $108.88 and $122.89 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.
MGRC Signals & Forecast
The McGrath RentCorp stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $113.96. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $111.91. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. 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. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, June 12, 2026, and so far it has fallen -1.16%. 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 McGrath RentCorp stock

Our recommended stop-loss: $108.94 (-4.23%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 3 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (MGRC) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 18th
For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 18th we expect McGrath RentCorp to open at $114.07, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $112.26 and $115.26, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.99 (+/-2.66%) up or down from last closing price. If McGrath RentCorp takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.66% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $113.86 (0.09%) than the support at $110.55 (2.82%), 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.
