These rates come from one specific setup — today's readings matched across 5 market conditions. That's this page's default; the dashboard lets you mix, add, or relax up to 17 factors, and the probabilities update live as the match changes. Not a prediction — this is what happened in the past.

CIEN earnings are within 2 trading days.

Earnings weeks behave differently: across 420 historical CIEN days within 5 days of earnings, the 5-day win rate ran 47.1% vs 51.6% the rest of the time. The rates on this page blend both — factor the event in before acting on them.

The near-vs-away split is a direct database query (not a dashboard view) — the query API on Power User plans runs comparisons like this. The dashboard's Earnings Proximity factor toggle gets you the near-earnings side free.

CIEN Price Target: Historical Range Projection

A traditional price target is one analyst's opinion. These ranges are measured: we take every historical day where CIEN looked like it does today and apply what actually happened next to the latest close of $317.46. The median is the center of history, not a promise.

Horizon Worst 5% 25th Median 75th Best 5%
Next day $298.19 $310.29 $316.92 $321.24 $323.40
Next 5 days $292.95 $311.84 $316.51 $321.97 $357.65
Next 20 days $292.60 $313.78 $325.08 $374.89 $377.30

Read it like this: across 8 matching days, CIEN's next-20-day outcomes centered on $325.08, with the middle half of history landing between $313.78 and $374.89. Ranges shift daily as conditions change.
