Pattern anatomy

Three defended declines near the same support area that may precede a bullish trend reversal.

Three support tests with two rebound highs; confirmation is a break above shared resistance.

How it works

Identify the prior trend first, mark repeated swing highs and lows, then draw only the support, resistance, or neckline justified by those pivots. A pattern remains provisional until price closes beyond its confirmation boundary; visual resemblance alone is not enough.

How to read it

The inability to establish a lower low shows persistent demand. The resistance formed by intervening rebounds determines completion.

Confirmation checklist

Look for an established prior trend, a completed boundary break, and preferably expanding volume or momentum confirmation. A reversal pattern formed without a trend to reverse is weaker evidence.

Limitations and false signals

Support becomes more vulnerable with every test, so the third trough can also precede a breakdown rather than a reversal.
