On April 28, the stock tumbled 4 per cent conclusively penetrating the medium-term up trendline as well as 21-day moving average, accompanied with good volume. With this decline, the daily moving average convergence and divergence indicator is indicating a sell.
The daily momentum indicator is falling in the neutral region and weekly momentum indicator has entered the neutral region from the bullish zone. Considering the penetration of the medium-term up trendline, we are bearish on the stock in the short-term.
