2.The stock is way below the 200DMA which sits around $25.
3.The spread between the 20DMA & 200DMA is also very wide indicating a pull back to the 200DMA.
4. The stock bottomed at $9.04 which was followed by some buying pushing the price up to $11.65 while still being under the 20DMA
5. Over the last two weeks the stock has been consolidating & with today’s huge igniting volume, the stock has seen a decisive close
above the 20DMA & formed a massive green Marubozu candle engulfing 11 other candles to it’s left.
6. Today’s price action shows a strong bullish sentiment & the first major target for the stock should be the 200DMA around $25.

considered a bullish pattern.
9. Key areas of support would be the mid-point & low of today’s Marubozu candle, followed by the low point of the downtrend at
$9.04.
10.A close below $9.04 provides could mean further acceleration of price downwards to the next level of support in the $7.5- $8
area.
