The long-term picture is weak. The stock is trading below a falling 200-day moving average — the market's long-term memory is pointing down, meaning sellers have been in control and that hasn't changed. The stock is lagging the S&P 500, meaning investors would have earned better returns simply owning the index. The first area where the chart starts to improve is near the 50-day average at $7, where sustained buying would suggest confidence is returning. The bigger test is reclaiming the 200-day at $7. Until the stock can move above that level and stay there, the long-term trend remains unproven. Risk state is elevated: ATR 4.8% · 1Y DD 41% · 3 dist days · 5 gaps.
