28.6823 USD
+0.94 (+3.4%)
We assign a technical rating of 8 out of 10 to FCA. In the last year, FCA was one of the better performers, but we do observe some doubts in the very recent evolution.
Warning: FCA has an average volume of 13290 traded shares per day. This is quite low and it might be dangerous to invest in illiquid stocks.
The long term trend is positive and the short term trend is neutral. The long term trend may just continue or reversal may be around the corner!
Looking at the yearly performance, FCA did better than 84% of all other stocks.
FCA is currently trading near its 52 week high, which is a good sign. The S&P500 Index however is also trading near new highs, which makes the performance in line with the market.
In the last month FCA has a been trading in the 27.49 - 29.66 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading in the middle of this range where prices have been consolidating recently, this may present a good entry opportunity, but some resistance may be present above.
Considerably lower volume is observed in the last couple of days.
Although FCA has an excellent technical rating, it does not offer a high quality setup at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
