Both the short term and long term trends are positive. This is a very positive sign.

In the last month FYC has a been trading in the 85.20 - 93.07 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading near the high of this range.
When comparing the yearly performance of all stocks, we notice that FYC is one of the better performing stocks in the market, outperforming 79% of all stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 4 months ago.
Although FYC has an excellent technical rating, it does not offer a high quality setup 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.
