Hold candidate since Aug 10, 2026

The Seagate Technology. stock price fell by -1.45% on the last day (Monday, 10th Aug 2026) from $812.76 to $800.99. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.33% from a day low at $800.28 to a day high of $826.90. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -1.96% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume fell on the last day along with the stock, which is actually a good sign as volume should follow the stock. On the last day, the trading volume fell by -2 million shares and in total, 4 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $3.25 billion.

The stock is at the lower part of a very wide and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $742.46 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Seagate Technology. stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $734.98 and $1,077.01 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.

STX Signals & Forecast

There are mixed signals in the stock today. The Seagate Technology. 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 $833.84 and $873.19. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, July 16, 2026, and so far it has risen 7.44%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Seagate Technology. stock

Seagate Technology. finds support from accumulated volume at $787.66 and this level may hold a buying opportunity as an upwards reaction can be expected when the support is being tested.

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 $26.62 between high and low, or 3.33%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 8.49%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $754.75 (-5.77%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 17 days ago.)

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

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 11th we expect Seagate Technology. to open at $809.39, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $762.61 and $839.37, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$76.76 (+/-10.07%) up or down from last closing price. If Seagate Technology. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 10.07% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $787.66 (1.66%) than the resistance at $820.16 (2.39%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
