Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.

CERS Signals & Forecast
There are mixed signals in the stock today. The Cerus Corporation stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $1.71 and $1.81. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. Volume fell along with the price during the last trading day, which is technical positive. One should, however, note that this stock may have low liquidity in periods, which increases the general risk. A buy signal was issued from a pivot bottom point on Wednesday, June 26, 2024, and so far it has risen 1.80%. Further rise is indicated until a new top pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is a buy signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD).

For the upcoming trading day on Wednesday, 3rd we expect Cerus Corporation to open at $1.70, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $1.62 and $1.78, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.0846 (+/-4.97%) up or down from last closing price.
