MarketAxess Holdings stock upgraded from Hold/Accumulate to Buy Candidate after Friday trading session
(Updated on Jul 24, 2026)
The MarketAxess Holdings stock price gained 2.08% on the last trading day (Friday, 24th Jul 2026), rising from $114.31 to $116.69. 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 2.95% from a day low at $113.46 to a day high of $116.81. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.49% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -55 thousand shares and in total, 435 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $50.80 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.
Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -28.57% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $66.99 and $83.35 at the end of this 3-month period. 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.
MKTX Signals & Forecast
Mostly positive signals in the chart today. The MarketAxess Holdings 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 $114.35 and $116.02. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, June 25, 2026, and so far it has risen 6.97%. 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.
