NPSCY Signals & Forecast
There are mixed signals in the stock today. The Nippon Steel Corporation 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 $7.22 and $7.24. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 09, 2024, and so far it has risen 2.89%. 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). Nippon Steel Corporation has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.

For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 17th we expect Nippon Steel Corporation to open at $7.10, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $6.93 and $7.29, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.182 (+/-2.56%) up or down from last closing price.
