Weaker technical forecast for Prospect Capital Corporation as stock downgraded to Sell Candidate
(Updated on Nov 17, 2025)
The Prospect Capital Corporation stock price fell by -1.45% on the last day (Monday, 17th Nov 2025) from $2.76 to $2.72. It has now fallen 5 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.95% from a day low at $2.71 to a day high of $2.79. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days but is still up by 4.21% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 2 million shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $9.20 million.
The stock lies in the middle of a wide and falling trend in the short term and further fall within the trend is signaled. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -5.61% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $2.34 and $2.71 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
PSEC Signals & Forecast
Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Prospect Capital Corporation stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $2.79 and $2.73. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, November 10, 2025, and so far it has fallen -5.56%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Prospect Capital Corporation stock
Prospect Capital Corporation finds support from accumulated volume at $2.67 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.
This stock has average movements during the day and with good trading volume, the risk is considered to be medium. During the last day, the stock moved $0.0800 between high and low, or 2.95%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.64%.
Our recommended stop-loss: We hold a negative evaluation for this stock. No stop-loss is set.
Trading Expectations (PSEC) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 18th
For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 18th we expect Prospect Capital Corporation to open at $2.74, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $2.68 and $2.76, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0824 (+/-3.07%) up or down from last closing price. If Prospect Capital Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.07% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $2.73 (0.37%) than the support at $2.67 (1.84%), 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.
Is Prospect Capital Corporation stock A Buy?
Prospect Capital Corporation holds several negative signals and is within a wide and falling trend, so we believe it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We therefore hold a negative evaluation of this stock. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Sell candidate.
