Buy or Hold candidate since Jan 02, 2024 Gain 47.29% PDF

The CRA International stock price gained 0.697% on the last trading day (Wednesday, 27th Mar 2024), rising from $144.98 to $145.99. It has now gained 6 days in a row. It is not often that stocks manage to gain so many days in a row, and falls for a day or two should be expected. During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 3.77% from a day low at $143.57 to a day high of $148.99. The price has risen in 7 of the last 10 days and is up by 2.82% 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, 13 thousand more shares were traded than the day before. In total, 34 thousand shares were bought and sold for approximately $5.02 million.

The stock lies in the upper part of a wide and strong rising trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break-up at the top trend line at $148.34 will firstly indicate a stronger rate of rising. Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to rise 52.55% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $199.67 and $226.29 at the end of this 3-month period.

Support, Risk & Stop-loss for CRA International stock

CRA International finds support from accumulated volume at $141.77 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 $5.42 between high and low, or 3.77%. For the last week, the stock has had daily average volatility of 2.19%.

Since the CRA International has been rising for 6 days in a row, the risk over the next couple of days has increased. We don't expect a major reaction as the stock is in very good shape technically, and therefore hold a positive evaluation despite the very short term risk.

Our recommended stop-loss: $140.85 (-3.52%) (This stock has medium daily movements and this gives medium risk. There is a buy signal from a pivot bottom found 30 days ago.)
