Trade idea: WFC long

WFC will hit good support at 26.88 if it continues down over the next few days.

This level corresponds to a gap fill and an important up-sloping trendline.


I will consider entering this trade on a hit of the gap fill at 26.88 and will be watching closely for it to close above the blue trendline. The closer the two levels are to each other , the better the odds of a successful bounce--this is why it's preferable for the trade to trigger in the near future.

As always, use a stop.

Trade idea: WAG long

Walgreen Co., (WAG) will have two important support levels coming up if it continues to decline.

The first level is at 36.68 and it corresponds to a gap fill and a 50% fib retrace. The second level at 34.71 corresponds to another gap fill and a 61.8% fib retrace.



As both of these levels have multiple support factors, both can be entered long for a short term swing trade. For either of these levels, be sure to use an appropriate stop and set it to trailing once in the money.
