Customer retention bolstered as comprehensive scam protection launches
TELUS has launched Scam Protection powered by Norton, becoming the first Canadian telecommunications provider to offer comprehensive scam protection for calls, texts, and emails at no additional cost with its new mobility data plans, according to Newswire. This initiative enhances the value proposition of TELUS's mobility offerings, potentially supporting customer acquisition and retention through improved digital security. The added protection may increase customer loyalty and demand, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.
Technical signals mixed as momentum indicators diverge near session low
The hourly chart shows T trading below the MA-20 at C$11.84 and above the MA-50 at C$11.62, while remaining well below the long-term MA-200 at C$16.01. Immediate resistance is defined by the Ichimoku Kijun at C$11.83, with MA-50 providing intermediate support. MACD and ADX currently suggest buy momentum, as RSI stands at 55.95 and Stochastic RSI signals a buy, while Bull/Bear Power also leans toward buyers. Nevertheless, CCI and the Awesome Oscillator are neutral, reflecting a lack of conviction across all oscillators. Price action closed near the session low, following a day of low volatility and a non-zero gap of C$0.09.
Consolidation expected as test of resistance or support looms
In the short term, T is forecast to trade within a range of C$11.54 to C$11.88 over the next two to three trading days, with a 56% probability of an upward move. The baseline scenario points to continued consolidation within this volatility band. If the price surpasses immediate resistance at C$11.83, a test of the upper boundary near C$11.88 is likely. Conversely, a failure to hold support may result in a decline below C$11.54.
Earlier, analysts noted that TELUS's expansion initiatives and service enhancements were contributing new growth drivers to the stock despite mixed technical momentum. The current analysis adds that, while recent product launches continue to bolster the company’s offering, price action remains pressured and traders should monitor C$11.83 as a key level for a potential move toward the upper volatility band.
