Citigroup appears to be setting up for a potential breakout from a bull flag following its earnings-related pullback. Yesterday, the stock pulled back and closed just below the 21 EMA. Today, it gapped up and opened right at the 21 EMA, which could signal continued strength if momentum holds.
I have an alert set for a move above the top of the flag. If that happens, I will evaluate whether the setup offers a favorable risk-reward entry. My stop loss would likely go just below the most recent low.

Note
I have redrawn the flag/pennant pattern and reactivated my alert on the top downtrend line. If this loses the 21 EMA (blue) and stays below it, the original idea is void.
