I don't usually trade this stock, but quoting around 5.5 support in a extreme oversold condition attracted my attention. Extreme oversold readings are particularly unsustainable and looking closely at the daily technical chart the MACD is showing a bullish divergence. This signifies that the prevailing trend is weak. If the prices fall to a new low but MACD traces a more shallow low, it would mean that bulls are ready to gain control, and this would identify strength at stock bottoms. In the above chart, you can see that bears are losing some momentum.
