Standard Chartered Stock Forecast

Buy or Hold candidate since Jun 22, 2026 Gain 9.52%

The Standard Chartered Plc stock price gained 0.301% on the last trading day (Monday, 10th Aug 2026), rising from $60.09 to $60.27. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.60% from a day low at $59.92 to a day high of $60.88. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 5.93% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 4 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 14 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $834.99 thousand.

The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong 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 $60.87 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 16.00% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $61.71 and $70.61 at the end of this 3-month period.

SCBFY Signals & Forecast

The Standard Chartered Plc 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 $59.85 and $56.98. 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). Standard Chartered Plc has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. Higher liquidity also reduces the general risk. 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 Tuesday, August 04, 2026, and so far it has fallen -0.0978%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Standard Chartered Plc stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $53.30 and $50.73. 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, Standard Chartered Plc finds support just below today's level at $53.30. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $50.73 and $47.65.

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 $0.96 between high and low, or 1.60%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.72%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $58.05 (-3.69%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 4 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (SCBFY) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 11th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 11th we expect Standard Chartered Plc to open at $60.36, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $59.62 and $60.93, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.31 (+/-2.20%) up or down from last closing price. If Standard Chartered Plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.20% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $60.33 (0.10%) than the support at $53.30 (11.57%), 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.
