On further gains, the stock will meet resistance from the short-term moving average at approximately $10.70. On a fall, the stock will find some support from the long-term average at approximately $9.18. A break-up through the short-term average will send a buy signal, whereas a breakdown through the long-term average will send a sell signal.
