Find bear flag patterns with sharp declines followed by weak bounces. Breakdown setups graded A+ to B across 5,000+ stocks daily.
The bear flag is a bearish continuation pattern — the mirror image of a bull flag. It forms when a stock experiences a sharp decline (the pole) followed by a weak, low-volume bounce or sideways consolidation (the flag). The flag represents a brief pause where sellers regroup before the next leg down. The best bear flags have steep poles, tight flags that retrace less than 50% of the decline, and volume that dries up during the consolidation. Our scanner identifies bear flags across 5,000+ stocks daily, scoring each setup based on pole magnitude, flag tightness, volume contraction, and bearish context.
For bear flags, an A+ grade means a pole decline of 20%+ with a flag retrace under 25%, strong volume contraction during the flag, a short flag duration (3-8 bars), and price below both the 50 and 200 SMAs. This is not a prediction of future price movement — it is a way to prioritize which charts deserve your attention first.
