Unlock the projected rangeSee where this setup landed historically — with Premium.

Over the next 20 trading days, similar setups historically landed in a measured range of outcomes. Premium shows the median return, the typical range, and how often they were positive. This is the historical range of outcomes — not a prediction of this stock’s price.

Ranges describe how this exact setup resolved in the past — derived from thousands ofhistorical occurrences across QuoTrend’s coverage since 2006, survivorship-corrected to include companies that later delisted. The band is the typical spread (±1σ) of those outcomes, not a forecast; the central value is their average move. Fewer matching cases over longer horizons widen the band and lower its reliability. Backtested results are hypothetical, based on historical data, and do not represent actual trading. Past performance does not guarantee or predict future results. QuoTrend is an educational research tool, not investment advice. Markets involve risk, including loss of principal.
