RUN Technical Analysis

RUN opened trading yesterday at $5.28 which was up from the previous days trading of $5.22. RUN closed trading yesterday at $5.41 and spiked up after market to $6.20, equivalent to a 15% increase from the closing price. Taking a look at the daily chart we can see the last time RUN traded above these levels was on June 21st when it traded at $6.23. Taking a closer look at the daily chart we can see that RUN has been in a downward trend dating back to April 27th when it traded at $8.39 . RUN has a float of 54.61 million shares and traded 1.52 times the normal daily trading volume on Thursday. For trading purposes, I would like to see RUN open trading on Friday above $5.90 and if it does I would be looking to take a long position at the bell. My stop loss would be $0.15 from my entry position fearing anything more than that and the stock would start to fill in the gap up.
