(Updated on Apr 15, 2024)
The American Software stock price fell by -4.36% on the last day (Monday, 15th Apr 2024) from $11.25 to $10.76. It has now fallen 3 days in a row. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 4.93% from a day low at $10.74 to a day high of $11.27. The price has been going up and down for this period, and there has been a -3.24% loss for the last 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 7 thousand shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 243 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $2.61 million.
The stock is moving within a wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect American Software stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $10.36 and $12.10 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.
AMSWA Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The American Software stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $11.58 and $11.34. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, and so far it has fallen -10.78%. 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). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.
