Finish Line Inc. (FINL) broke above a triangle consolidation in February/March. The real break came in mid-march when price pushed above 19. Then, after cracking 20, there was a pullback. This pullback bounced off of 18, which confirmed the "price bottom". FINL Daily Chart 4/11(click to enlarge) Now, after cracking 22, price is retreating sharply again. If you believe the market has turned around and is bullish in 2016, then, the 18.50-19 area could be a good place to go long. A break below 17.50 should invalidate the bullish outlook. On the reward side, there is upside back to 22, and perhaps the 24-24.50 area. The 18.50-19 area involves a common resistance during the consolidation stage in the past several months. It is also where the 50- and 100-day simple moving averages are. A rising speedline would challenge price in this area. Finally, the RSI will likely be around 40 if price gets to 18.50. If the market is to remain bullish, the RSI would likely hold above 40. Thus, there is a confluence of reasons price can anchor back up after falling to the 18.50-19 area.
