Trading Expectations (WAT) For The Upcoming Trading Day Of Thursday 18th

For the upcoming trading day on Thursday, 18th we expect Waters Corporation to open at $306.68, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $295.76 and $312.60, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$8.42 (+/-2.77%) up or down from last closing price.
