What causes the declining?

Well since Alibaba’s highest pike on the 14th of November, the company have been receiving critics from Chinese regulators on their e-commerce activities, forecasts that missed estimates and Alibaba is also currently facing slow growth in sales. And don’t forget the Chinese e-commerce market is growing that fast as many are expecting it.

What to do now?

Alibaba is still facing many challenges; they are still testing the waters of the international markets.

Alibaba stock Price Movement 21-04-2015

As you can see from the screenshot. From march till now the Alibaba stock price movement has been and still is in a indecisive trend. You might have notice the double inside bar which indicates that the indecisive trend will continue. On 7th may 2015  Alibaba company will  announce their first quarter results. We think that day is the day that might end the indecisive trend of Alibaba stock price movement. If the results are good and Alibaba stock price close above 85 dollars we might get a uptrend of Alibaba. And if the results are bad and the stock price of Alibaba closes below 80 dollars we might get a downtrend of Alibaba.
