DEO Signals & Forecast
A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 16, 2024, and so far it has risen 3.20%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Diageo plc 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 $144.99. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $140.13. 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). Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements.

Trading Expectations (DEO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th
For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect Diageo plc to open at $140.38, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $138.36 and $142.40, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$2.02 (+/-1.44%) up or down from last closing price. If Diageo plc takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 2.88% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $140.35 (0.02%) than the resistance at $140.91 (0.38%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
