LASR Signals & Forecast
There are few to no technical positive signals at the moment. The nLIGHT Inc. stock holds sell signals from both short and long-term Moving Averages giving a more negative forecast for the stock. Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average. On corrections up, there will be some resistance from the lines at $11.45 and $12.44. A break-up above any of these levels will issue buy signals. A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Thursday, February 15, 2024, and so far it has fallen -26.83%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Furthermore, there is currently a sell signal from the 3 month Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD). Volume rose on falling prices yesterday. This may be an early warning and the stock should be followed more closely.

For the upcoming trading day on Friday, 19th we expect nLIGHT Inc. to open at $10.87, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $10.20 and $11.18, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$0.487 (+/-4.55%) up or down from last closing price.
