We assign a technical rating of 8 out of 10 to FTA. This is due to a decent performance in both the short and medium term time frames. Compared to the overall market, FTA is only an average performer.
Although FTA has an excellent technical rating, it does not present a decent entry opportunity at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
