After an explosive move, it is normal and actually healthy to see a stock consolidate or pull back on below average volume, which is exactly what has been occurring in the past two weeks. Since a buy signal was already triggered it may be advantageous to accumulate shares on the retracement toward support, rather than chasing the stock and buying too extended beyond its pivot point.
