The Marathon Oil Corp stock price gained 0.0995% on the last trading day (Friday, 3rd May 2024), rising from £603.00 to £603.60. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.80% from a day low at £599.20 to a day high of £616.00.

Volume fell on the last day by -4 million shares and in total, 4 million shares were bought and sold for approximately £2.54 billion. 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 has broken the wide and weak rising short-term trend down. This signalizes a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning about a possible trend shift. Due to the trend being broken there will now be resistance at the bottom line of the trend at £603.69. A reaction back to this level may hold a second chance to get out before further falls.

MRO.L Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 02, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.0995%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. 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. The Marathon Oil Corp 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.

Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).
