SunOpta Inc. Stock Forecast

SunOpta Inc. stock upgraded to Hold/Accumulate.
(Updated on May 17, 2024)

SOY.TO Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 02, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.266%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The SunOpta Inc. stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $7.82 and $8.39. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). SunOpta Inc. gained volume on the last day, but on falling prices. In technical terms, this is called divergence and may be an early warning. In some cases, increasing volume on falling prices may be considered positive, but that is mainly in typical "sell-offs".

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for SunOpta Inc. stock

SunOpta Inc. finds support from accumulated volume at $7.52 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

This stock may move much during the day (volatility) and with a large prediction interval from the Bollinger Band this stock is considered to be "high risk". During the last day, the stock moved $0.210 between high and low, or 2.82%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 3.61%.

SunOpta Inc. is oversold on RSI14 (24). Some stocks may drop long and hard while being oversold on RSI before turning, which increases the general risk.

Our recommended stop-loss: $7.13 (-5.47%) (This stock has high daily movements and this gives high risk. Low RSI14 is 24 which reduces the risk some. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 11 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (SOY.TO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 21st

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 21st we expect SunOpta Inc. to open at $7.55, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $7.08 and $8.00, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.459 (+/-6.09%) up or down from last closing price. If SunOpta Inc. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 12.18% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $7.52 (0.27%) than the resistance at $8.02 (6.37%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..

Is SunOpta Inc. stock A Buy?
