IVAC Signals & Forecast

A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Monday, April 15, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.11%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Intevac has increased volume and follows the last lift in the price. This is considered to be a technical positive sign as volume should follow the price-formation. Higher liquidity also reduces the general risk. Some negative signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. The Intevac 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 $3.81. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the short-term average at $3.64. 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).

Trading Expectations (IVAC) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Wednesday 24th

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 24th we expect Intevac to open at $3.65, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $3.51 and $3.79, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.139 (+/-3.80%) up or down from last closing price. If Intevac takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 7.60% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $3.64 (0.27%) than the resistance at $3.80 (4.11%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..
