Buy or Hold candidate since Jul 30, 2026 Gain 1.67%

The Zions Bancorporation stock price gained 0.427% on the last trading day (Monday, 10th Aug 2026), rising from $70.32 to $70.62. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 1.13% from a day low at $69.94 to a day high of $70.73. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 3.06% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day along with the price, which is a positive technical sign, and, in total, 230 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 951 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $67.14 million.

The stock lies in the lower part of a strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good buying opportunity. If the lower trend floor at $69.97 is broken, it will firstly indicate a slower rate of rising, but may also be an early warning for a trend shift. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 19.31% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $83.48 and $91.53 at the end of this 3-month period.

ZION Signals & Forecast

The Zions Bancorporation 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 $70.79. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $70.03. 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 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. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, July 16, 2026, and so far it has fallen -3.67%. 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 Zions Bancorporation stock

Zions Bancorporation finds support from accumulated volume at $69.52 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 $0.788 between high and low, or 1.13%. For the last week the stock has had daily average volatility of 1.88%.

Our recommended stop-loss: $67.77 (-4.04%) (This stock has very low daily movements and this gives very low risk. There is a sell signal from a pivot top found 17 days ago.)

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

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 11th we expect Zions Bancorporation to open at $70.43, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $69.90 and $71.34, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.44 (+/-2.06%) up or down from last closing price. If Zions Bancorporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.06% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $70.84 (0.31%) than the support at $69.52 (1.56%), 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 Zions Bancorporation stock A Buy?

Zions Bancorporation 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. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Buy to a Hold candidate.
