Trading Expectations (CARD.L) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 25th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 25th we expect Card Factory Plc to open at £99.80, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between £94.71 and £101.69, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-£3.49 (+/-3.56%) up or down from last closing price.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at £101.00 (2.85%) than the support at £94.90 (3.36%), 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.
