    Searching for busted patterns

    there are so many chart readers these days I think the busted patterns are going to provide the best profits going forward.....ie, H/S patterns are obvious and therefore often doomed to failure....I think many folks give up on a chart once the pattern doesn't seem to play out as expected.....However, if they played the pattern failure, I think they'd ring the register with nice gains.


    BDK got a new buy from Deutche bank today....looking forward to how it trades since it's between strikes and just a hair under the lower rail of the weekly symmetrical chart pattern.

    well aware of the BDK pattern

    but, when those patterns fail like ARO did, wow, the profit was enormous....busted patterns often provide the best profit opportunities.

    BTU and ACI: what would constitute a buy signal for you?
