Remember the entry on a flag is a break above the high of the low day, so watch for a potential entry signal on Monday.
Guidance:
The SPX found support at its 61.8% Fib level from its June 8 low. The SPX tested 1,071, touched 1,067 before rallying to a high of 1,083 which is right in the middle of the 1,081 to1,085 short term resistance area, before pulling back to close up for the day at 1,076. The SPX formed a spinning top which is part of a two day candle bullish harami which suggests the potential for a support bounce on Monday. Look for the formation of a higher low and higher high on Monday and for potential confirmation of Friday's bullish harami.
Tighten up stops to protect profits on your short term bearish trades.
If a support bounce fails to appear on Monday, stay with the short term down trend while looking for a potential break above the high of the low day in up trending stocks on Monday.
Trade strong stocks up.
