Middlesex Water Company Stock Forecast

Hold candidate since Nov 17, 2025

The Middlesex Water Company stock price fell by -1.68% on the last day (Monday, 17th Nov 2025) from $52.50 to $51.62. It has now fallen 4 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.10% from a day low at $51.16 to a day high of $52.23. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days but is still up by 3.45% 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 -22 thousand shares and in total, 78 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $4.02 million.

The stock lies in the lower part of a wide and weak rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $50.38 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 5.19% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $53.00 and $65.94 at the end of this 3-month period.

MSEX Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, November 03, 2025, and so far it has risen 3.45%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Middlesex Water Company 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. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $52.76 and $55.85. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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 Middlesex Water Company stock

Middlesex Water Company finds support from accumulated volume at $49.90 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $1.08 between high and low, or 2.10%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.83%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $48.67 (-5.71%) (This stock has high daily movements and this gives high risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 10 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (MSEX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 18th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 18th we expect Middlesex Water Company to open at $51.67, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $50.49 and $52.75, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.26 (+/-4.47%) up or down from last closing price. If Middlesex Water Company takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.47% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $52.80 (2.29%) than the support at $49.90 (3.33%), 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.
