The Northwest Pipe Company stock price gained 1.24% on the last trading day (Monday, 22nd Jun 2026), rising from $139.19 to $140.92. It has now gained 5 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 2.97% from a day low at $138.49 to a day high of $142.61. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 19.67% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 34 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 281 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $39.62 million.

The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $142.09 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 83.31% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $232.56 and $260.47 at the end of this 3-month period.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Northwest Pipe Company stock

Northwest Pipe Company finds support from accumulated volume at $139.19 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 $4.12 between high and low, or 2.97%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 4.01%.

The Northwest Pipe Company stock is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some stocks may go long and hard while being overbought. Regardless, the high RSI together with the trend position increases the risk and higher daily movements (volatility) should be expected. A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely and it is of great importance that the stock manages to break the trend before that occurs.

Our recommended stop-loss: $135.14 (-4.10%) (This stock has high daily movements and this gives high risk. The RSI14 is 82 and this increases the risk substantially. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 22 days ago.)

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 23rd we expect Northwest Pipe Company to open at $140.67, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $138.29 and $143.55, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$5.26 (+/-3.80%) up or down from last closing price. If Northwest Pipe Company takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.80% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

With no resistance above and support from accumulated volume @ $139.19, some $1.73 (1.23%) from the current price of $140.92, our system finds the risk reward attractive.
