I am not saying it can't go up but looking at the chart, risk/reward is not favorable to the long side.
Learned that the hard way last year, was up $4k and got greedy didn't lock any profits and got burned hard. Never will make that mistake again!

ps: anyone have experience with Scotia i-trade, thinking of switching to it from BMO investor line.
