Old Point Financial Corporation Stock Forecast
Weaker technical forecast for Old Point Financial Corporation as stock downgraded to Strong Sell Candidate.
(Updated on Apr 25, 2024)
The Old Point Financial Corporation stock price fell by -2.90% on the last day (Thursday, 25th Apr 2024) from $14.75 to $14.32. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 0% from a day low at $14.32 to a day high of $14.32. The price has fallen in 5 of the last 10 days and is down by -2.64% for this period. 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 -3 thousand shares and in total, 330 shares were bought and sold for approximately $4.73 thousand.
The stock has broken the wide and falling short-term trend down. Firstly a stronger fallrate is indicated, but false breaks and "sell-off" may occur. However, a further fall is realistic and any reactions back to the breaking point ($14.73) are considered to be a "second chance" to get out. According to the fan-theory $12.68 will represent the new bottom line of the next trend, but it is far too early to say this for certain.

OPOF Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The Old Point Financial 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 $14.68 and $15.91. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, March 28, 2024, and so far it has fallen -19.31%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell along with the price during the last trading day which is technical positive. One should, however, note that this stock may have low liquidity in periods, which increases the general risk. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Old Point Financial Corporation stock
There is no support from accumulated volume below today's level and given the right condition the stock may perform very badly in the next couple of days.
This stock has average movements during the day, but be aware of low or falling volume as this increases the risk. During the last day, the stock moved $0 between high and low, or 0%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.92%.
Old Point Financial Corporation is oversold on RSI14 (23). Some stocks may drop long and hard while being oversold on RSI before turning, which increases the general risk.
Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.
Trading Expectations (OPOF) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Friday 26th
For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 26th we expect Old Point Financial Corporation to open at $14.32, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $13.94 and $14.71, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.384 (+/-2.68%) up or down from last closing price. If Old Point Financial Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.36% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $15.90, some $1.58 (11.02%) from the current price of $14.32, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.
