Shell Stock Forecast

Hold candidate since May 23, 2025

The Shell stock price gained 0.531% on the last trading day (Friday, 23rd May 2025), rising from $65.95 to $66.30. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.41% from a day low at $65.38 to a day high of $66.30. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a 0.23% gain for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day by -240 thousand shares and in total, 3 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $203.17 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 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 -4.53% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $55.41 and $67.93 at the end of this 3-month period.

SHEL Signals & Forecast

The Shell stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $66.56. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $64.93. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal. 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 Tuesday, May 13, 2025, and so far it has fallen -1.94%. 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).

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Shell stock

Shell finds support from accumulated volume at $63.89 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

In general the stock tends to have very controlled movements and with good liquidity the risk is considered very low in this stock. During the last day, the stock moved $0.92 between high and low, or 1.41%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.15%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $63.82 (-3.75%) (This stock has very low daily movements and this gives very low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 8 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (SHEL) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 27th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 27th we expect Shell plc to open at $65.99, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $65.12 and $67.48, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.18 (+/-1.77%) up or down from last closing price. If Shell plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.55% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $66.79 (0.74%) than the support at $63.89 (3.63%), 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 Shell plc stock A Buy?
