VersaBank Stock Forecast

Red day on Tuesday for VersaBank
(Updated on May 28, 2024)

VBNK Signals & Forecast

There are mixed signals in the stock today. The VersaBank stock holds a buy signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, the long-term average holds a general sell signal. Since the longterm average is above the short-term average there is a general sell signal in the stock giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the long-term Moving Average at $9.81. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $9.60. A break-up through the long-term average will give another buy signal, while a fall below the short-term average will add another sell signal and strengthen the general signal. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). VersaBank 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". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Thursday, May 23, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.37%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for VersaBank stock

VersaBank finds support from accumulated volume at $9.62 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 $0.170 between high and low, or 1.77%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.49%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $9.22 (-4.29%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 48 days ago.)

Trading Expectations (VBNK) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 29th

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 29th we expect VersaBank to open at $9.69, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $9.45 and $9.81, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.177 (+/-1.84%) up or down from last closing price. If VersaBank takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 3.69% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $9.62 (0.10%) than the resistance at $10.58 (9.87%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..

Is VersaBank stock A Buy?

VersaBank holds several positive signals, but we still don't find these to be enough for a buy candidate. At the current level, it should be considered as a hold candidate (hold or accumulate) in this position whilst awaiting further development.
