I'm not convinced that the bottom is in this one yet. It would be more compelling to me if the chart was making lower lows and the macd higher lows (this is known as macd bullish divergence and is the start of many trend reversals).

To me the weekly chart looks like it is making a sideways triangle (or symmetrical triangle) that may likely breakdown soon. The macd is below 0, so the chart is downtrending currently, when the two macd lines cross downwards the next leg down begins.

While I don't recommend it one could wait to see if breaks upwards from inside the triangle than down, buy and then use the lower side of the triangle as an initial stop. This would be a counter trend trade and they can be challenging for even advanced traders. Best to go with the flow if the chart is not indicating bullish divergence and in this case it isn't...the trend's down...
