Detected Patterns — What the Market Is Watching
- Deep Base (>33% — elevated failure rate) — depth 65.0%, length 42 weeks, pivot $58.68. Base formed from 2025-10-08 (left-side high) to 2026-08-11, with the low of $20.53 set on 2026-03-20
- Bull Flag after a 33.0% run, currently 0.3% off the flag high
⚠️ Faulty cup warning: the base is 65.0% deep (above the 38–40% threshold). A correction this deep leaves heavy overhead supply — trapped holders from higher prices are likely to sell into any rally, raising the failure rate of a breakout from this base.
