Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Discovery Laboratories, Inc stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $24.67 and $24.90 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and stocks seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. Stocks turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.
