Bull Flag

    0.02 sec.
Bull Flag
In technical analysis, an uptrend followed by roughly even trading on heavy volume. A bull flag is likely to be followed by a further rise and is a signal to buy, especially when the even trading begins to break upward. It derives its name from the fact that it looks roughly like a flagpole when plotted on a graph. See also: Bear flag.
