Two troughs at roughly the same level, separated by a moderate peak.

Schematic · the live site draws this from the rule

Formation rule

Two troughs at roughly the same level, separated by a moderate peak.

Method

Target and invalidation

Conventional target: A break above the peak projects a rise equal to the trough-to-peak distance.

Invalidated by: A close back below either trough invalidates the pattern.

Traditional claim, not measured

This is the standard technical-analysis interpretation. It has not been tested against our dataset the way the candlestick formations have.
