August Wk 2 Thoughts
With major earnings over and a rush to fill the gap, will bulls aim for a new high or bears move in for the pullback?
1) Weekly Time Frame
Price has held above a strong resistance price around 327.5ish, risen above the S/R from Jan-Feb, and broke out of an ascending wedge. One word: bullish. This week will be the eyeing for a confirmation of bull behavior.
2) Daily Time Frame
Breaking out of the ascending wedge bulls are looking to hit a target 335.41. The expediency of the push cause two gaps to form. These are naturally attractive to fill, and the further away they get from them, the larger the drop to fill them. As of now though, 335 is a psychological resistance and close to the bulls target.
3) Side Thoughts
Be cautious being bearish at 335. Getting stopped out is the market game. Make sure there's confirmation of a trend change before hopping in.
