AGU 07/17 DB hdl 40.68 -0.86 46.25 53.95 1.4M 2M 44.38
Current. Tested below the next support intraday but then rebounded
to cut its losses and hold above the recent lows of
the past two weeks. Much lower volume so let it make
this test. This is where it fishes or cuts bait.

Current. Met with support under the 50 day MA as it sold hard on high volume. Need the support to hold here and weather the high selling volume as MFE reaches down for the 90 day MA.
