DIS Bearish Continuation Play Following Descending Triangle Gap Short

Walt Disney Company (The)NYSE

Description

Description
Been tracking the descending triangle that DIS was working since early MAR, with a short alert set and triggered on the lower boundary. It was a massive gap though (an indication of a strong break-out), so I have been waiting on a retracement before entry.

Today marks a solid rejection of the resistance set in NOV19 and retested before the gap into the pattern on 9DEC20' @ 154.5, conveniently located at the .382 retracement following the start of this decline, thus triggering the short entry.
The implied move from the Descending Triangle takes DIS down to 136.

I am not a perma-bear by many means, but I am seeing the same things in almost every chart I look at. The rebound to near ATHs in the indexes earlier this week were only textbook retracements in a lot of the names that have made major bearish breaks in the last 3 months.
The VIX is also finding support at 20.
