Default Re: I think the flag will break down, what do you think?

[ QUOTE ]
These are 'boxes' per Nicholas Darvas "HOW I MADE 2MM IN THE STOCK MARKET". These are not classic TA flags per se-- these 'flags' have no slope.

Flags are counter-trend parallelogram patterns that slope against the trend. They are among the most common and reliable of patterns for finding good entry in an existing trend.

See:
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS OF THE FINANCIAL MARKETS by John Murphy, page 140-145.

Exzackly. The chart in the OP doesn't really have a trend, and those are flat trading ranges (channels) instead of flags.
