During the last trading day the stock fluctuated 2.68% from a day low at $81.32 to a day high of $83.50. The price has fallen in 6 of the last 10 days but is still up by 7.76% over the past 2 weeks.

The stock is moving within a very wide and horizontal trend and further movements within this trend can be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Estee Lauder Companies Inc (The) stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $65.71 and $90.08 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.
EL Signals & Forecast
The Estee Lauder Companies Inc (The) stock holds a sell signal from the short-term Moving Average; at the same time, however, there is a buy signal from the long-term average. Since the short-term average is above the long-term average there is a general buy signal in the stock giving a positive forecast for the stock. On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term Moving Average at approximately $86.95.

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 4th we expect Estee Lauder Companies Inc (The) to open at $82.29, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $80.22 and $83.88, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$3.67 (+/-4.57%) up or down from last closing price.
