>>5 Rocket Stocks Ready to Blast Off

From a technical perspective, ANGI is currently trading below its 50-day moving average, which is bearish. This stock has been downtrending hard for the past two months, with shares dropping from a high of $19.82 to a recent low of $12.25 a share. During that move lower, shares of ANGI have consistently made lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. On Tuesday, ANGI dropped below some near-term support at $12.88 to $12.81 a share with heavy volume.

If you're bullish on ANGI, I would only look for long-biased trades if this stock can manage to find some high-volume buying interest near its all-time low of $10.77 a share. That $10.77 area is the lowest ANGI has traded since it IPOed back in late 2011. The way this stock is trending right now, it looks destine to re-test that level very soon. If buyers step in around $10.77 with upside volume that's near or above 283,016 shares, then it could be a good area to get long the stock.
