MACD line and the signal line are moving very close to each other since a long time and are not suggesting any trend. The short-term technicals are looking pretty good: both the 4×9 Cross-Over and 4×18 Cross-Over are bullish.

The GMMA chart shows that long-term lines are parallel to each other which is a bullish sign for the stock. The short-term lines are entangled because of the last months range bound movement.

Looking at these technicals a short-term buy is suggested. A break-out of the pennant in either direction will trigger a longer-term call.
