During the day the stock fluctuated 26.03% from a day low at $0.69 to a day high of $0.87. The price has risen in 6 of the last 10 days and is up by 43.61% over the past 2 weeks. Volume has increased on the last day by 36 million shares but on falling prices. This may be an early warning and the risk will be increased slightly over the next couple of days. In total, 171 million shares were bought and sold for approximately $134.24 million.

The stock lies the upper part of a very wide and falling trend in the short term, and this may normally pose a very good selling opportunity for the short-term trader as reaction back towards the lower part of the trend can be expected. A break up at the top trend line at $0.85 will firstly indicate a slower falling rate, but may be the first sign of a trend shift.Given the current short-term trend, the stock is expected to fall -67.51% during the next 3 months and, with a 90% probability hold a price between $0.0152 and $0.28 at the end of this 3-month period. Do note, that if the stock price manages to stay at current levels or higher, our prediction target will start to change positively over the next few days as the conditions for the current predictions will be broken.
