5

Overall HFBC gets a technical rating of 5 out of 10. Although HFBC has been one of the better performers in the overall market, we have a mixed picture in the medium term time frame. But recently some decent action can be observed again.

Warning: HFBC has an average volume of 18076 traded shares per day. This is quite low and it might be dangerous to invest in illiquid stocks.
HFBC is currently trading in the upper part of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is currently trading near a new high, so HFBC is lagging the market slightly.
In the last month HFBC has a been trading in the 18.27 - 19.95 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading in the middle of this range where prices have been consolidating recently, this may present a good entry opportunity, but some resistance may be present above.
The long and short term trends are both neutral. This gives a pretty neutral overall picture!
Looking at the yearly performance, HFBC did better than 85% of all other stocks. However, this overall performance is mostly based on the strong move around 7 months ago.
