Here is your Bonus Idea with links to the full Top Ten:
Apple, Ticker: AAPL
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), has a lot going on. First notice that all of the Simple Moving Averages (SMA) are running flat and the Bollinger bands® are getting tight. These are signs of a move to happen soon. The tighter ascending triangle (red) is being tested at support with a target to 500 on a break lower. That would be below the support of the large scale (blue) symmetrical triangle that has touched 4 times and is moving to the 5th at the bottom. A break of that targets 390. Whoa. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is moving lower to test the bearish zone under 40 and the MACD has crossed down, both supporting the downside. There is support lower at 524.50 and 514 followed by 495 and 477 before 447. Resistance higher comes at 543 and 547.50 followed by 560 and 572.
