ECD doesn't strike me as having the sort of predictably high level of volume to qualify as a trading stock. (Not that I'd consider myself much of an authority on the technical side.) But, when I compare it to an instrument such as Ciena which has fallen from 90 to 13, is in a recognized "hot" industry (WDM), and trades 4mil/day with frequent 1,2,3,4 point movements in the low 20s with some earnings history and no debt....now this looks like a trading stock. I'm in CIEN at $16.50 and thinking I might get a ride to $40 on any sort of a takeover reality.

<<All the news has been published (well the best news expected) >> Since we are all unaware of news that has not yet been published, & we don't know what news you were expecting, the above statement is not useful. <<I am a long term holder >> You don't appear to be interested in the fundamental value of ECD based upon the technologies & earnings potential, but rather on the technical information based on the various charts & averages that you employ. How then do you consider yourself a long term holder?
