Green day on Thursday for Royal Caribbean Cruises stock after gaining 3.66%
(Updated on Jun 18, 2026)
The Royal Caribbean Cruises stock price gained 3.66% on the last trading day (Thursday, 18th Jun 2026), rising from $301.47 to $312.51. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.53% from a day low at $308.10 to a day high of $315.91. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 6.56% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 2 million more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $1.00 billion.
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 $314.49 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 5.77% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $267.52 and $332.64 at the end of this 3-month period.
RCL Signals & Forecast
The Royal Caribbean Cruises 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 $298.79 and $276.33. 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 is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. 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 Monday, June 15, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.370%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.
Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Royal Caribbean Cruises stock
On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $267.71 and $263.76. There is a natural risk involved when a stock is testing a support level, since if this is broken, the stock then may fall to the next support level. In this case, Royal Caribbean Cruises finds support just below today's level at $267.71. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $263.76 and $253.89.
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 $7.81 between high and low, or 2.53%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 3.34%.
Our recommended stop-loss: $300.30 (-3.91%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 3 days ago.)
Trading Expectations (RCL) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 22nd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 22nd we expect Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd to open at $312.17, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $305.64 and $319.38, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$13.73 (+/-4.49%) up or down from last closing price. If Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.49% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $312.84 (0.11%) than the support at $267.71 (14.34%), 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 Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd stock A Buy?
Several short-term signals, along with a general good trend, are positive and we conclude that the current level may hold a buying opportunity as there is a fair chance for Royal Caribbean Cruises stock to perform well in the short-term.
