Yahoo is a stock that has been under some tremendous selling pressure over the past little while, and has sawed the price down by about 25%. When the long term chart is viewed, you can clearly see the “falling knife” scenario, which means that getting in while the decline is occurring could cause your trading account to decline. You can see support around $30, which isn’t very strong, but gives the stock a couple of points of safety zone from here. The MACD continues to head lower from here, with the STOCHs suggesting that the decline may be coming to an end, but mixed signals are not an optimal trading signal naturally. On the short term chart, you can see the price reaching support at its current price level, which is confirmed by a MACD divergence, and could spell short term opportunity here. The price is also below both 200 and 50 day moving averages, which isn’t a good sign either.

Bottom line, there is a chance of some short term price increases here, but if you do make some money from this trade, you may want to take profits fairly quickly, as the long term trend still needs to base here.
