A 52-week high/low is the highest and lowest share price that a stock has traded at during the previous year. Investors and traders consider the 52-week high or low as a crucial factor in determining a given stock’s current value while also predicting future price movements. When a commodity trades within its 52-week price range (the range that exists between the 52-week low and the 52-week high), investors usually show more interest as the price nears either the high or the low.
One of the more popular strategies used by traders is to buy when the price eclipses its 52-week high or to sell when the price drops below its 52-week low. The rationale involved with this strategy says that if the price breaks out either above or below the 52-week range, there is momentum enough to continue the price fluctuation in a positive direction. Pharma Mar S.A.U. (PHMMF)’s high over the last year was $4.5 while its low was $4.43.
Moving average convergence divergence (MACD) is a trend-following momentum indicator that illustrates the relationship between two moving averages. MACD is calculated by subtracting the 26-day exponential moving average (EMA) from the 12-day EMA. A “signal line”, the 9-day EMA of the MACD, can then plotted on top of the MACD, acting as a trigger for buy and sell signals.
There are three methods used to interpret the MACD. The first is “Crossovers”. When the MACD falls below the signal line, it is bearish, indicating that it might be time to sell. When the MACD shoots above the signal line, the indicator is bullish, indicating that the price of the commodity is probably going to experience upward momentum. The second method is “Divergence”, meaning that when the price of the security diverges from the MACD, it signals the end of the current trend. Lastly, there is the “Dramatic Rise”. When the MACD experiences a dramatic rise, the signal indicates overbought status and will probably soon return to more normal levels.
The 9-day difference between a short-term and long-term moving average. A value above 0 indicates a bullish signal while a value below 0 interprets as a bearish signal. Pharma Mar S.A.U. (PHMMF)’s 9-Day MACD is 0.0333 and its 14-Day MACD is 0.0482.
