From a technical perspective, DYN is currently trading above its 50-day moving average and below its 200-day moving average, which is neutral trendwise. This stock recently bottomed at 30 cents after falling hard from over $1.54 a share. After hitting that bottom, shares of DYN have started to make mostly higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish technical price action. That move has now pushed DYN within range of triggering a major breakout trade.

If you're bullish on DYN, then I would look for long-biased trades once this stock breaks out above some near-term overhead resistance at 64 cents to 74 cents with high-volume. Look for volume on that move that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1,828,310 shares. If we get that action soon, then DYN could easily spike back towards $1.00 to $1.20 a share.

I would simply avoid DYN if this stock drops back below its 50-day at 49 cents or some more major support at 45 cents per share with heavy volume.
