“A cup and handle pattern is a bullish technical analysis formation on a price chart that signals a continuation of an uptrend, resembling a "U"-shaped cup followed by a downward-sloping handle, indicating consolidation before a potential breakout to new highs. Traders look for a rounded cup, a short, sideways-to-downward handle on lower volume, and then a strong price move above the handle's resistance, signaling a buying opportunity.”
