In fact, it has been the best-selling truck in America for the past 46 years. But Ford's current F-150 Lightning EV hasn't managed to replicate the same level of success.  </p><p>This is why Ford is now focusing on the launch of its new Chevy Silverado EV and its first battery-powered light-duty pickup truck for 2024. Analysts are eager to see how this will compete with Tesla's upcoming electric truck the Cybertruck due to be launched later this year.  </p><p>While many individuals may think Tesla is better positioned than Ford in the electric pickup truck battle, it is worth remembering that Ford was the second-best seller of EVs in the US last year. General Motors have now overtaken them this year so far, but Ford's pipeline of EV vehicles could help them to regain their spot.  </p><p>Ford is also starting production of an all-electric Explorer SUV in its Cologne Electric Vehicle Center in Germany. $2 billion has been invested to make this Ford's first carbon-neutral factory and investors will want to see a return on this investment through the planned production of nine EV vehicles from the factory.  </p><p>While Ford is preparing itself to try and fill the EV demand from consumers it is now a very competitive field. Other carmakers such as VW, GM, Tesla, and BMW are all increasing their EV product range as well. Executives from Ford already <a rel="nofollow noopener" href="https://edition.cnn.com/2023/06/27/business/ford-layoffs/index.html" target="_blank">stated</a> that they are likely to lose $3 billion this year on EV sales but are still on track to meet their profit target of $9 billion to $11 billion for the year.  </p><p>However, the uncertainty is also why analysts are mixed on the stock, as shown below.</p><h2 aria-level="2">Ford Stock Forecast – What do the Analysts Say?</h2><p>According to analysts polled by TipRanks for a Ford stock forecast in the past 3 months, there are currently 5 buy, 4 hold and 1 sell rating on the stock. The highest price level for a Ford stock forecast is $20.00 with the lowest price target at $11.00. </p><p>The average price target for a Ford stock forecast is $14.88.</p><figure><a href="https://admiralmarkets.com/analytics/traders-blog/trading-idea-ford-new-electric-vehicle"><picture class="lozad" data-iesrc="https://fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/ford_analyst_price_forecast.png" data- data- data-alt="ford analyst price forecast" data-height="489" data-width="1100"><source type="image/webp" media="(min-width: 640px)" srcset="https://dqvh7oj3vu3ch.cloudfront.net/720x,webp/fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/ford_analyst_price_forecast.png"></source><source type="image/webp" media="(max-width: 639px)" srcset="https://dqvh7oj3vu3ch.cloudfront.net/375x,webp/fxmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/articles/ford_analyst_price_forecast.png"></source></picture></a>

<li>Buy the stock on a break above $15.00 to allow for volatility. </li>
<li>Target just below the highest analyst price target of $20.00. </li>
<li>Keep your risk small at a maximum of 5% of your total account.   </li>
<li>Time Line = 1 – 6 months  </li>
<li>If you buy 10 Ford shares:  
<ul>
<li>If target is reached = $50.00 potential profit [($20.00 – $15.00) * 10 shares].   </li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul><p>Remember that markets go up and down and it is unlikely the share price will move up in a straight line. In fact, it may even go much further down before it rises, especially considering how volatile the stock market is currently.  </p><p>Be sure to exercise good risk management and always know how much you could potentially lose on a trade and the risks involved, as well as the costs.</p><p>With the Admirals <a href="https://admiralmarkets.com/start-trading/admiral-invest-stocks-and-etfs" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Invest.MT5</a> account you can buy and sell US stocks with a commission from $0.02 per share. This means buying 10 shares in Ford stock would result in a commission of $0.20 ($0.02 * 10 shares) for executing a per-side transaction.</p><p>There is a low minimum transaction fee of $1. So, the example trading idea above would result in a commission of just $1 overall! </p><h2 aria-level="2"><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span data-ccp-para>How to Buy </span><span data-ccp-para> Ford</span><span data-ccp-para> Stock in 4 Steps </span></span><span data-ccp-props='{"201341983":0,"335559738":40,"335559739":0,"335559740":259}'> </span></h2><p><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span><span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" data-contrast="none"><span>With Admirals, you can buy shares in companies like Ford</span><span> with a low commission of just $0.02 per share and a low minimum commission of just $1 on US stocks. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p><ol>
