To review YY's stock, please take a look at the 8-month chart of YY (YY, Inc.) below with my added notations:
Notice the rising wedge I have outlined on the chart of YY. A rising wedge price pattern is essentially a type of triangle formation in which the stock (YY) has formed an up trending resistance line (red) and an up-trending support level (green). These two trend lines converging on one another combine to form a rising wedge, which is usually a terminal pattern. Confirmation of this pattern would occur if the stock broke the up-trending support, which appears to be at around $50.

The Tale of the Tape: YY has created a rising wedge pattern, which should lead to a break lower. A short trade could be entered on a break out of the bottom of the wedge, which currently sits near $50. If a trader believes the stock has higher prices in it's future, a long play could be made at that support with a stop placed below that level.
