Trading Expectations (HGUSD) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 23rd

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 23rd we expect Copper to open at $6.48, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $6.44 and $6.55, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.107 (+/-1.66%) up or down from last closing price. If Copper takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 1.66% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $6.53 (0.58%) than the support at $6.34 (2.35%), our systems don't find the trading risk/reward intra-day attractive and any bets should be held until the stock is closer to the support level.
