Dallas, Texas 04/21/2014 (FINANCIALSTRENDS) –  Francesca’s Holdings Corp (NASDAQ:FRAN) on the daily chart has broken below a very important support zone at $17.5 from where the stock had previously taken support and bounced higher. Another thing to point out is the fact that the stock has broken below this support zone on the back of very huge volumes and has seen volumes go up on all down days pointing towards high level of bearishness in the stock.  The stock currently trades below both its important moving averages that are the 200 day and 50 day moving averages which signifies the strong downtrend the stock has been in.
