For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 7th we expect Matthews International Corporation to open at $27.35, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $27.22 and $28.10, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.87 (+/-3.20%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $27.75 (0.33%) than the support at $27.25 (1.48%), 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.
