Management and risk description
On the daily chart (Figure 2) we can clearly see a strong downtrend, which is drawn in blue. The strength can be seen by rapid down movements, which have a higher volume. A medium-term trader could wait for a subordinate downtrend to get a short entry. With increasing selling this trade has targets around $44.00 and $37.00.
Above the price level of $52.50 our short idea would be over.
