First, in case you haven't noticed, we made a bunch of posts this past weekend. Uploaded three trade setups and three book recommendations. These posts will be part of a new section of called The Library which you will be able to access from the Inside TrendVue box.
Second, Bob and I have finished refining the first nine automated stock scan lists at ChartScreener.com, and will be adding more as the week goes on.
These are Paul's intraday stock picks for Monday. He will review each setup for the Real-Time Trading Group at around 11AM Eastern.

This was the weekend headline at WJS.com:
"August has the dubious honor of being the worst month on Wall Street in the last 15 years – and stocks are off to an appropriate start so far. Analysts speculate on whether this month will live down to the sorry reputation, and what investors should do about it."
Maybe this means there will be an upside surprise somewhere?
[$INDU, Daily] Dow Jones Industrial Average
Let's take a quick look at the daily $INDU chart.

The dark blue lines mark out the trading range, while this solid pink line was the original lower edge of a triangular congestion area. This line was breached in last week's trading, and the question now is IF this bounce will find sellers or IF...

...the triangular congestion area is simply getting bigger, after finding some support at the 50-day MA. The key will be to watch for telltale signs in the 9200 area.
The plan for today is to take a look at the market and individual stocks in detail. It's always a good idea to look at the big picture just before a big scheduled event in the market, so that we have the map in front of us as it happens.
[Tables] Support and Resistance
Let's try a test of this and see if the code works.
| S3 | S2 | S1 | Symbol | R1 | R2 | R3 | Trading Range |
| 8997 | 9121 | 9148 | $INDU | 9209 | 9361 | --- | 8871-9352 |
| --- | --- | 960 | $SPX | 982.55 | 987 | 1004 | 962-1015 |
