Will Twitter (TWTR) ever make money? That sounds like an existential question for a company, and price action in 2016 reflected a collective "I don't know" as price between 14 and 20 for the most part. We did have a surge to 25.00 which was immediately faded.The technical picture also shows that the prevailing downtrend is still intact albeit a flattening of price action in 2016. But it looks like the market is holding a line here above 14.00 as if to say above 14.00 is limbo, but below 14.00 could be hell. (Above 25.00 and TWTR would probably be back to life.

On the daily chart we can see a confluence of pivots in this area. - A target of 17.00 provides a potential of 9.6% gain. - We can see that even a conservative target has a good reward to risk for a buy at 15.50 with a stop at 14.80. - It's just that timing might be bad.
