VRSK Signals & Forecast

The Verisk Analytics 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 $270.68 and $259.59. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 30, 2024, and so far it has risen 24.96%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Volume is rising along with the price. This is considered to be a good technical signal. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Tuesday, January 02, 2024 in the long-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the stock in question.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for Verisk Analytics stock

On the downside, the stock finds support just below today's level from accumulated volume at $252.78 and $232.81. 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, Verisk Analytics finds support just below today's level at $252.78. If this is broken, then the next support from accumulated volume will be at $232.81 and $222.25.

Our recommended stop-loss: $262.34 (-3.68%) (This stock has low daily movements and this gives low risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 100 days ago.)
