How to trade PayPal in lieu of the result?

the above shows PayPal as a growing company with strong (& improving) fundamentals.



From the 1D chart above, PayPal’s decline of stock price from a recent high of $310 should bottom up soon based on the MACD chart below. It would be prudent for us to to take BUY positions after MACD has bottomed up (with the 2 lines have crossed). This should take few days. After doing our own due diligence, we can consider adding new positions for this attractive company.

    Its share price has been falling. To be honest, I'm worried. Whether it is a company worth investing in.

      given the good months of results, the value should pick up over time.
