Also, there is a general sell signal from the relation between the two signals where the long-term average is above the short-term average.

A sell signal was issued from a pivot top point on Monday, March 04, 2024, and so far it has fallen -19.30%. Further fall is indicated until a new bottom pivot has been found. Volume fell along with the price during the last trading day which is technical positive. One should, however, note that this stock may have low liquidity in periods, which increases the general risk. The very low volume increases the risk and reduces the other technical signals issued.
