ACME UNITED CORP (ACU) Stock Technical Analysis
NYSEARCA:ACU - American Stock Exchange - US0048161048 - Common Stock
Taking everything into account, ACU scores 0 out of 10 in our technical rating. ACU scores bad on all fronts: it is a bad performer in the overall market and both the medium and short term pictures are negative.
The short term trend is neutral, while the long term trend is still negative. We need to see a little more continued positive action to make this really interesting.
83% of all other stocks performed better in the past year than ACU.
ACU is one of the lesser performing stocks in the Commercial Services & Supplies industry. 70% of 83 stocks in the same industry do better.
ACU is currently trading in the lower part of its 52 week range, which is not a good signal. Certainly not because the S&P500 Index is trading near new highs.
Considerably lower volume is observed in the last couple of days, which is not what you would like to see during a strong up movement.
Warning: ACU has an average volume of 11691 traded shares per day. This is quite low and it might be dangerous to invest in illiquid stocks.
In the last month ACU has a been trading in the 34.35 - 39.99 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading in the middle of this range, so some resistance may be found above.
The technical rating of ACU is bad and it also does not present a 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.
