On the upside, look for a move back over $5.02 — today’s high. Should we get it, the stock would begin filling into today’s gap. Specifically, it could put the channel midpoint in play, followed by the 10-day moving average.
In this scenario, bulls could use the current low as their stop-loss. Keep in mind, it will be wide.
On the downside, the $3.40 to $3.60 area could act as support. Near this zone, Paysafe stock finds a downward extension, as well as channel support.
Keep in mind that this is very much a speculative holding, no matter which outcome sets up.
