This stock had been uptrending strong for the past six months, soaring from around $6.50 to its recent high of $13.19 a share. That said, shares of SBGI have now entered a short-term downtrend off that high of $13.19. Since hitting that high, the stock has started to slide lower back below its 50-day making lower highs and lower lows. If you're a bullish on SBGI, then I would wait for this short-term downtrend to cease before buying any shares. One way to identify that is to look for a high-volume move back above its 50-day at $12 and above some near-term resistance at $12.18 a share. Look for volume on a move above those levels that registers close to or above its three-month average action of 422,585 shares. If that moves doesn't happen soon, then you can look for long entry points off previous support levels at $11.31 or near $10 a share. Follow @stockpickrSelect the service that is right for you!
