Cup and Handle Pattern

Cup and Handle Pattern A cup and handle is a common bullish chart pattern that resembles a “cup” with a “handle”. It is a continuation pattern that occurs after a rising trend and indicates a consolidation period followed by a breakout. A cup usually has a “U” shape with the highs on both sides at approximately the same level. A handle forms after the cup as a temporary pullback or final consolidation. It may look like a flag or pennant before the breakout. A cup and handle pattern may appear in different time frames. The distance between the right peak of the cup and the bottom is usually considered as a projected price rise from the breakout.
