VBFC Signals & Forecast
The Village Bank & Trust Financial Corp stock holds buy signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a positive forecast for the stock, but the stock has a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections down, there will be some support from the lines at $41.22 and $41.24. A breakdown below any of these levels will issue sell signals. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Tuesday, April 02, 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. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume fell on the last day without any changes to the price. This does not cause any direct divergence but may be an early warning and a possible "turning point". The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
A buy signal from a double bottom formation was found on Tuesday, April 02, 2024 with a target of $41.56. Despite whether the objective of the signal formation has been reached the stock may continue to perform well.

Trading Expectations (VBFC) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Monday 22nd
For the upcoming trading day on Monday, 22nd we expect Village Bank & Trust Financial Corp to open at $41.56, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $41.25 and $41.93, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.338 (+/-0.81%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $41.69 (0.24%) than the support at $41.12 (1.13%), 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.
