I'm not a chart guy, but it looks like there is nothing in the way on the downside until the December 24, 2018 low of $9.49. However, that date was a low for many stocks and doesn't really seem to represent anything other than a brutal selloff that caught everybody. The share price bounced right back up immediately afterwards.
The only other noticeable trough in the last five years was on FEb 22, 2016 when the share price dipped to $8.76 after reaching a high close of $14.61 the previous April. I hope that a poster who has been around for awhile could shed some light on what happened in 2016 to cause the long and deep drop off and identify what initiated the comeback.
