QCR Holdings Stock Forecast
Stronger technical forecast for QCR Holdings stock price after Tuesday trading.
(Updated on Jul 02, 2024)
The QCR Holdings stock price gained 1.22% on the last trading day (Tuesday, 2nd Jul 2024), rising from $58.98 to $59.70. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.08% from a day low at $59.08 to a day high of $59.72. The price has risen in 8 of the last 10 days and is up by 6.7% over the past 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -13 thousand shares and in total, 33 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.96 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 stockis at the upper part of a horizontal trend and normally this may pose a good selling opportunity but a break-up through the top trend line at $60.04 will give a strong buy signal and a trend shift could be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect QCR Holdings stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $54.64 and $60.01 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

QCRH Signals & Forecast
The QCR Holdings 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 $58.03 and $57.26. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). 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. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Friday, June 28, 2024, and so far it has fallen -0.500%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.
A sell signal from a double top formation was found on Friday, June 28, 2024 and based on theory for this formation the price should fall by -9.35% to $54.12 within 29 trading days since signal was issued (Friday, August 09, 2024).

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 3rd we expect QCR Holdings to open at $59.50, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $58.47 and $60.93, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.23 (+/-2.06%) up or down from last closing price.
