The rewards keep dropping. Consistently. The price keeps dropping. Consistently. There is nothing to indicate that the price or rewards will reverse their trend.
Overall the trend is down, but the it is very up and down along the way. Right now it is very low for both awards and prices. Now that the World Cup is over we'll probably see some improvements in mining awards.
I have seen them drop from 58 to 200 then back up 400 then back down to 200 thats the whole point of trade. Yes I didnt invest much and with little trade I was able to cover my losses so if I sell today I will be at even. I have been on the site for like 2 months at the most.
