Qantas Airways Limited Stock Forecast
Qantas Airways Limited stock price ended at $5.90 on Monday, after gaining 0.340%.
(Updated on May 06, 2024)
The Qantas Airways Limited stock price gained 0.340% on the last trading day (Monday, 6th May 2024), rising from $5.88 to $5.90. It has now gained 3 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 1.55% from a day low at $5.82 to a day high of $5.91. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 4.98% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -577 thousand shares and in total, 4 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $24.48 million. You should take into consideration that falling volume on higher prices causes divergence and may be an early warning about possible changes over the next couple of days.
The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and weak 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 $6.04 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 6.67% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $5.61 and $6.44 at the end of this 3-month period.

QAN.AX Signals & Forecast
There are mixed signals in the stock today. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, and so far it has fallen -0.506%. 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). The Qantas Airways Limited stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general buy signal from the relation between the two signals where the short-term average is above the long-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $5.86 and $5.58. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Volume fell during the last trading day despite gaining prices. This causes a divergence between volume and price and it may be an early warning. The stock should be watched closely.

Trading Expectations (QAN.AX) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 7th
For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 7th we expect Qantas Airways Limited to open at $5.88, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $5.78 and $6.02, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.123 (+/-2.08%) up or down from last closing price. If Qantas Airways Limited takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.15% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $5.93 (0.51%) than the support at $5.82 (1.36%), 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.
