The TARK Chart: TARK opened lower on Monday but buyers came in and bought the dip. The dip at the market open caused a higher low to form, which indicates the ETF’s uptrend remains intact.

• TARK’s uptrend has been taking place within a rising channel pattern, where the ETF has been making a series of higher highs and higher lows. The most recent spike higher, between Aug. 25 and Friday, combined with the recent consolidation lower may have caused the ETF to form a bull flag within the channel.
• If the bull flag is recognized, and TARK eventually breaks up from the flag and channel pattern on higher-than-average volume, the measured move is about 20%, which indicates TARK could eventually rise toward the $80 mark.
• If Tark breaks down under the eight-day exponential moving average the bull flag will be negated and the ETF could fall back toward the lower ascending trend line of the channel. A breakdown from the channel could indicate the bull cycle has ended.
• TARK has resistance above at $77.20 and at $86.10 and support below at $65.46 and at $56.50.
