The stock is at the lower part of a narrow and horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $11.26 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect Flaherty & Crumrine Preferred Income stock with a 90% probability to be traded between $11.22 and $11.58 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.
