Apple Inc. (AAPL): The Support Bounce Challenge

Corey Rosenbloom: Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) shares face a critical support bounce challenge – a key opportunity for traders – at the $92.00 level.

Let’s focus on this level and plan a trade on the departure from this immediate level.

We’ll start with the Daily Chart:

Apple (AAPL) rallied on positive divergences “up away from” the $92.50 level in February 2016.

Price rallied all the way back to the falling 200 day SMA (red) above $110.00 per share.

From there, a negative momentum and volume divergent preceded a reversal back to the downside as the downtrend continued.

Now, Apple traders face a similar “Will it Bounce or Will it Break” simple trading plan once again at $92.50.

I’d prefer to see a postive divergence or more sideways action develop at this level before trading bullishly.

Nevertheless, compare February 2016 to May 2016 for a similar trading opportunity and plan.

We can pull the perspective back to the Weekly Chart for a Bullish Bounce AND a Bearish Breakdown Plan:
