Thanks SPatelB15-1. so lower highs even though a flat base you would consider more as an indication of a short play coming? My mind keeps telling me the flat base is a safer identification for risk level. whenever I see the invert of this flag I start worrying about having to set too loose of a stop, but maybe I should be looking to enter close to the flat area of resistance/support and use that level as an indication as to the direction the price is about to break. I'll try this out over the coming weeks.
Yep! Lower highs means bearish, higher lows means bullish. What I charted out was a descending triangle pattern (bearish). Now that doesn't mean it's always a short. Can be a long if this happens. http://prntscr.com/7ipfrv. This basically means that the downtrend (lower highs) has been broken upward. I hope that makes sense! Good luck!

More of a bear flag. Lower highs and basing at around $49. I would have seen this as a short. http://prntscr.com/7hvd9f
