Trading Expectations (PVAL) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Tuesday 14th

For the upcoming trading day on Tuesday, 14th we expect Principal Contrarian Value Index ETF to open at $51.85, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $51.63 and $52.11, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.486 (+/-0.94%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $51.88 (0.02%) than the support at $51.36 (0.98%), 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.
