Novavax Daily Chart Analysis

• The fall below the pennant pattern shows that bears have taken control of the stock as higher lows were unable to continue to form. The price may continue to fall until it can form higher lows, where a bottom may be formed.
• The stock trades below both the 50-day moving average (green) and the 200-day moving average (blue). This indicates the sentiment is bearish, and each of these moving averages may hold as an area of resistance in the future.
• The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been falling since November and now sits at 23. This shows the stock has fallen into the oversold region and that bears are pushing the stock lower. As the stock stays in the oversold region, it will see much more selling pressure than buying pressure.
