$37.29 resistance keeps Rogers Communications stock in check as it trades sideways
Rogers Communications gains 0.72% today

Rogers Communications Inc. (RCI) stock is trading at $36.51, recording a daily gain of 0.72%. The price is positioned below its key moving averages on short- and long-term timeframes.

Highlights

  • RCI/USD remains pressured as it trades below key moving averages across hourly and daily timeframes, signaling sustained bearish control.
  • Momentum indicators confirm prevailing weakness, with most signals bearish and limited signs of any immediate counter-trend reversal.
  • Price is expected to consolidate between $35.63 and $37.39, with a notably higher probability of a downward move prevailing.

Weak momentum and resistance cap rebound prospects

Technically, RCI is trading below the MA-20 ($36.97) and MA-50 ($37.84) on the hourly chart, as well as below the MA-200 ($37.12) on the daily chart. The Ichimoku Kijun line is at $37.29, marking immediate resistance. Momentum indicators remain weak: RSI is at 32.54 (Sell), MACD gives a Sell signal, and ADX confirms strong downside momentum. CCI and Bull/Bear Power highlight persistent seller dominance, with Stoch RSI and Awesome Oscillator both neutral, suggesting limited support for a reversal in the current session.

Sideways drift likely unless resistance is breached

Over the next several sessions, RCI is expected to trade within a volatility band of $35.63 to $37.39. The likelihood of a sustained upward move is low, while probabilities favor a downside scenario. Unless the price breaks above the $37.29 resistance, a period of sideways consolidation within the established range is the baseline scenario; a drop below $35.63 would confirm renewed selling momentum.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, notes that Rogers Communications Inc. is currently trading below its key moving averages and faces clear technical pressure. He sees persistent selling momentum on all indicators, with the price struggling to overcome resistance at $37.29. The analyst expects sideways consolidation unless the stock can break above resistance, and assigns a higher probability to a move lower if $35.63 is breached. "Given the technical setup, I view RCI as stuck in a range for now, but the downside risk outweighs short-term upside until we see a clear reversal signal," Karapetjanc concludes.

Earlier, analysts noted that Rogers Communications was experiencing persistent downside momentum and a predominantly bearish technical outlook. The latest price action and momentum signals reinforce this trend, making a potential break below $35.63 the critical level for traders to monitor in the coming sessions.
