To analyze Croc's stock for potential trading opportunities, please take a look at the 1-year chart of SMBL (Smart Balance, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of SMBL (Smart Balance, Inc.)
From May until October CROX was trading within a large range from $14 up to $18. The $14 support (green) from July was also tested back in December. However, at the end of October CROX broke below that $14 level, which was also a new 52-week low for the stock. Now that the stock has rallied back up from its November low, the $14 level should act as resistance like it did a week or so ago.
