Ford Stock Chart Bullish Ahead Of Q3 Earnings
Ford stock is currently showing a moderately bullish trend, supported by several key indicators.
Chart created using Benzinga Pro
The stock’s price of $11.07 is trading at or above its eight-day, 20-day and 50-day simple moving averages (SMAs) of $11.07, $10.83, and $10.83, respectively, all of which are bullish signals indicating potential for upward movement in the near term.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) of 0.10 further reinforces this positive momentum, suggesting that Ford could experience continued buying interest in the short term. However, the stock is facing selling pressure, which hints at possible bearish movement ahead if this pressure intensifies.
In the longer term, caution is warranted. The 200-day SMA sits at $11.86, well above the current price, signaling some vulnerability in Ford's overall trend. This could imply that despite the recent bullish signals, the stock may struggle to break through higher resistance levels unless market conditions improve.
Additionally, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 55.35, and rising, suggests that Ford is approaching overbought territory, which could limit further gains and possibly lead to a short-term pullback.
Investors may want to watch closely for any shifts in momentum, as the balance between buying and selling pressure could dictate the next move for Ford stock.
