Stacks [STX] saw increased volatility at the end of February. Afterward, its value see-sawed and chalked an ascending channel. It appreciated from $0.2871 in mid-February to above $1.200 by the second half of March – an over 300% rally.
But the price ceiling at $1.200 set it into retracement before bulls found steady ground at the channel’s lower boundary of $0.8000.
