Detected Patterns — What the Market Is Watching
- Deep Base (>33% — elevated failure rate) — depth 53.9%, length 47 weeks, pivot $92.18. Base formed from 2025-09-19 (left-side high) to 2026-08-25, with the low of $42.53 set on 2026-03-27
⚠️ Faulty cup warning: the base is 53.9% 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.
