Trading Expectations (KEP) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 28th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 28th we expect Korea Electric Power Corporation to open at $8.32, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $8.13 and $8.51, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.195 (+/-2.34%) up or down from last closing price. If Korea Electric Power Corporation takes out the full calculated possible swing range there will be an estimated 4.68% move between the lowest and the highest trading price during the day.

Since the stock is closer to the resistance from accumulated volume at $8.54 (2.64%) than the support at $7.68 (7.69%), 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.
