Shares of UP Fintech (NASDAQ: TIGR), a Beijing-based online brokerage firm that focuses on global Chinese investors, traded notably lower on Thursday.
The catalyst for the selloff was a new rule that impacts how Chinese citizens invest in foreign markets. The new rules start on Nov. 1 and represent another case of regulatory risk from Beijing. While caution is warranted, the long-awaited reversal may finally be not too far and could only be a matter of time until the downtrend in UP Fintech stock ends.
TIGR has fallen by over 75% from its highs in February, and had a sharp fall after the double top it made in June.
TIGR had extremely high selling volumes on Thursday, thus it is looking very weak, Nevertheless, a reversal could still be seen soon.
RSI was in the oversold zone on Thursday, this is hinting towards a reversal however if the selling volumes remain this strong, the RSI may fall even further.
A strong demand zone can be seen at $7.5, this is an extremely crucial zone as going below this level could be the point of no return for TIGR and could be the confirmation of the stock sinking slowly.
A long entry should only be taken if a clear return is seen, which will show that the buyers are back at the demand zone, an early entry in TIGR could be very risky since it is a very weak stock.
If a reversal is seen we may be able to achieve some great targets in the long run, starting with $12.57 as the first target.
Investors should note that this is a risky trade thus positions should not be taken in large quantities.
