LG says he expects the market to go up until the Dow hits the trend line (which is drawn as a line resting on the upper price fluctuations since the last top - ie a line tangent to the chart). Then he expects it to bounce back until it hits the 50 and 200 day moving averages at which point it might consolidate a bit. However, if it breaks above the existing trendline all bets are off. Often previous consolidation/resistance areas on the way up become congestion/support areas for the price on the way down. That's the bull flag stuff. A bull flag is a short down trend within a major advance. On charts that include daily highs and lows it looks like a sloping down rectangular "flag".

Does this make sense to you?

I really think there is no short-cut but to first learn some standard TA terms. There are plenty of good books and websites.

This stuff is the most basic "classic TA".
