Not a good buy right now: trend and momentum remain bearish, and Intellectia signals show no active edge today.
Pre-market ~1.90 is below the pivot (1.957), implying overhead resistance and a higher probability of rejection on bounces.
With an impatient profile (unwilling to wait for an optimal entry), this setup is unfavorable—better to avoid/exit rather than attempt a falling-knife bounce.

Technical Analysis

Trend: Bearish structure with SMA_200 > SMA_20 > SMA_5, confirming a sustained downtrend.
Momentum: MACD histogram -0.00292 and negatively expanding → bearish momentum is strengthening.
RSI(6): 35.08 → weak/near-oversold, but not giving a reliable reversal signal on its own.
Key levels: Support S1 1.823 then S2 1.74; Resistance Pivot 1.957, then R1 2.09.
Probabilistic short-term trend: Pattern-based outlook shows slight downside bias (next month expected -1.49%).

Positive Catalysts

and holds.

Neutral/Negative Catalysts

- Downtrend is intact (bearish moving averages) with bearish MACD expansion, increasing odds of continued weakness.
- Financial quality concern: gross margin is negative (-13.37%), signaling poor underlying profitability in the latest quarter.
- No recent news/catalysts to change sentiment; hedge funds and insiders show neutral activity (no confidence signal).
- Market backdrop is risk-off pre-market (S&P 500 -0.59%), which can pressure small caps/micro caps more.
