INOV Technical Analysis
INOV opened trading yesterday at $15.05 which was exactly the same as the previous day’s trading close. INOV closed trading yesterday at $14.85 and crashed down after market to $9.95, equivalent to a 33% decrease from the closing price. Taking a look at the daily chart we can see that we are in unchartered territory as INOV is now trading at all time lows. Taking a closer look at the daily chart we can see that before the spike down INOV had already been in an overall downward trend dating back to November 25th when it traded at highs of $16. INOV has a float of 53.81 million shares and traded below the normal daily trading volume on Monday. For trading purposes, I would like to see INOV open trading on Tuesday below $11.50 and if it does I would be looking to take a short position at the bell. My stop loss would be $0.30 from my entry position fearing anything more than that and the stock would start to fill in the gap down.
