Optical Cable Corporation Stock Forecast

Optical Cable Corporation stock upgraded to Buy Candidate.
(Updated on Apr 24, 2024)

OCC Signals & Forecast

The Optical Cable Corporation stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $2.77 and $2.89. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell during the last trading day while the price increased. This causes a divergence and may be considered as an early warning, but it may not be. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued. Some positive signals were issued as well, and these may have some influence on the near short-term development. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 23, 2024, and so far it has risen 0.369%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. The stock had a Golden Star Signal on Monday, February 05, 2024 in the short-term chart.

Golden Star Signal is when the short-term moving average, the long-term moving average, and price line meet in a special combination. This combination is very rare and often followed by long and strong gains for the stock in question.

Trading Expectations (OCC) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect Optical Cable Corporation to open at $2.72, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $2.64 and $2.80, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0838 (+/-3.08%) up or down from last closing price. If Optical Cable Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.16% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the support from accumulated volume at $2.71 (0.37%) than the resistance at $2.83 (4.04%), our systems sees the trading risk/reward intra-day as attractive and believe profit can be made before the stock reaches first resistance..

Is Optical Cable Corporation stock A Buy?

Several of the signals/indicators are negative, and we believe that this will affect on the development for the next days and maybe possible weeks. However, over time, we think that today's level holds a possible buying opportunity and that the price will be higher during or at the end of this 3-month period. We have upgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Buy candidate.
