On July 5, 2017, Limited Brands (LB) reported less than stellar monthly comps for June 2017. Call it a "skimpy" sales report. This was the 7th straight month of dismal monthly sales according to a Zacks Investment Research article I read.

In my previous Trendy Stock Charts article for Limited Brands (LB), I warned of one more probable pullback. That pullback should find support as mentioned

Let's look at one more comment from the previous article and then look at some current charts.

Since the MACD Histogram reflects buying momentum that is still increasing, LB's share price has the potential to reach for the $57 price area during the current uptrend. However, any resistance at that level should be considered a selling opportunity as the final leg down could then be starting. At a very minimum, wait until a re-test of the support area from the Long-Legged Doji candlestick pattern is complete before making a second scale-in purchase of the stock.

This first chart is an updated 2 year weekly chart from the June 8, 2017 article. It shows that LB's share price reached $55.98, slightly less than the $57 price target I mentioned above.
