KRO is currently trading in the lower part of its 52 week range, which is not a good signal. Certainly not because the S&P500 Index is trading near new highs.
In the last month KRO has a been trading in the 4.70 - 6.54 range, which is quite wide. It is currently trading near the high of this range.
The short term trend is positive, while the long term trend is still negative. So this is evolving in the right direction, but it may need some more time to really turn around the trend.
KRO has a poor technical rating and the quality of the setup is also not perfect 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.
