Petrobras jumps 7.1% and already hits the model's first target

August 21, 2026

Our view last week

Petrobras stock closes the week nearly flat (-0.4%), with sellers slightly prevalent on the last bar and daily money flow in negative territory. On the weekly chart, though, the picture stays constructive: price works boxed between the 20-week average, in the 18 area, and the 7-day low, in the 17.6 area. This technical analysis follows the buy signal, now in its fourth week, with signal strength still high at 70 out of 100 and the energy sector in full swing.

This week's summary

Last week Petrobras was boxed between its 20-week average and the 7-day low; this week it breaks out with a 7.1% jump, above the 50-week average. The energy sector backs the move, sharply higher on both the week and the month. On the daily chart, though, the stock has traced three lower highs in the 19 area: a near-term caution flag, even as the weekly structure stays constructive. The buy signal is now in its 5th week, and the trade is already in profit.
