Trading Expectations (MAIN) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 23rd

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 23rd we expect Main Street Capital Corporation to open at $50.71, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $49.75 and $50.95, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$1.20 (+/-2.41%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $50.97 (1.23%) than the support at $49.63 (1.43%), 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.
