A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, and so far it has risen 8.41%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Motorcar Parts of America 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.
