Energy Transfer stock price forecast: $18.61 support in focus as ET trades flat
Energy Transfer LP (ET) stock is trading at $18.91 after declining 0.84% today. The price remains positioned below its key short-term moving averages on the hourly chart but stays above the long-term daily trend level.
Highlights
- ET/USD faces sustained selling pressure in the short to medium term, trading below major hourly moving averages despite holding long-term bullish structure.
- Momentum indicators confirm a bearish bias with no signals of oversold conditions, while intraday price action remains moderately volatile with sellers in control.
- Key price range projected for the coming days is $18.61 to $19.21, with a high probability of further downside if $18.61 support breaks and limited immediate upside potential.
Persistent short-term selling amid resistance and mixed momentum signals
On the technical front, ET is trading below both its MA-20 and MA-50 on the H1 timeframe, while still holding above the daily MA-200, which underscores the persistent short- and medium-term selling bias despite retention of a bullish longer-term structure. The Ichimoku Kijun at $18.97 marks immediate resistance, and the price remains bounded by support at $18.61. Momentum indicators including MACD and ADX both signal a sell bias, with the RSI at 42.55 and CCI also in negative territory, pointing away from oversold levels. The Stoch RSI stands neutral, while BBP highlights sellers dominating intraday flows; the Awesome Oscillator provides no clear signal.
High downside risk as price stays confined within volatility band
In the near term, ET is expected to trade within a typical volatility band between $18.61 and $19.21. The baseline scenario favors rangebound movement inside this corridor. An upward move remains a low probability event, with high downside risk prevailing; a confirmed break above the $18.97 resistance would open room for a recovery attempt, while a drop below $18.61 would confirm further price weakness.
Earlier, analysts noted that while Energy Transfer was experiencing near-term selling pressure, improving operational results and technical support offered the potential for a shift in trend. Current price action reinforces the dominance of bearish momentum, making a decisive move above immediate resistance at $18.97 the key signal to monitor for any near-term recovery attempt.
