Trading Expectations (VECO) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 4th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 4th we expect Veeco Instruments Inc. to open at $60.66, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $58.81 and $62.11, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$3.31 (+/-5.62%) up or down from last closing price. If Veeco Instruments Inc. takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 5.62% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $61.21 (1.24%) than the support at $57.72 (4.53%), 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.
