SID Signals & Forecast
There are mixed signals in the stock today. The National Steel Company 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 $3.16 and $3.34. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume fell together with the price during the last trading day and this reduces the overall risk as volume should follow the price movements. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Friday, March 15, 2024, and so far it has risen 3.30%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

Trading Expectations (SID) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 1st
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 1st we expect National Steel Company to open at $3.11, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $3.03 and $3.23, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0960 (+/-3.07%) up or down from last closing price. If National Steel Company takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 6.13% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.
Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $3.14 (0.32%) than the support at $3.10 (0.96%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
Is National Steel Company stock A Buy?
National Steel Company holds several negative signals and we believe that it will still perform weakly in the next couple of days or weeks. We, therefore, hold a negative evaluation of this stock. Due to some small weaknesses in the technical picture we have downgraded our analysis conclusion for this stock since the last evaluation from a Hold/Accumulate to a Sell candidate.
