1-year chart of YOKU (Youku Tudou, Inc.)
Over the last year YOKU has commonly found support at the $16 level (green). The stock has also been trending lower (blue) since March even though the overall market has moved higher during that period of time. This down trend would seem to imply that YOKU is gearing up for a break of support, which the stock did end up doing earlier this week (red).
