Trading Expectations (FTNT) For The Trading Day Of Monday 7th

For the trading day on Monday, 7th we expect Fortinet to open at $58.07, and during the day (based on 14 day Average True Range), to move between $53.52 and $60.02, which gives a possible trading interval of +/-$3.25 (+/-5.73%) up or down from last closing price.

With no support below and resistance from accumulated volume @ $64.59, some $7.82 (13.77%) from the current price of $56.77, our system finds the risk reward not very attractive.
