Honestly, I doubt so any trader would pop champagne over such results.... Again, study the chart closely .....

The mother encouraged him to try again. A while later, he forgot about the fall and he crawls again. And again. And again. This repetitive action will continue to play in his mind...

Longer term, we expect the price to revisit the low of Feb 2009 at 1.41. This will be counters that I will not short as the risk/reward ratio is not attractive anymore. The peak of this share was in 2013 at 18. That level will be a shorting level to begin with. Nevertheless, to each his own and this trade set up is for your reference only and not an invitation...
