Chart Patterns

Cup and Handle

Pattern Description:

The Cup and Handle is a bullish continuation pattern that marks a consolidation period followed by a breakout. The cup is in the shape of a "U" and the handle has a slight downward drift. The right-hand side of the pattern has low trading volume. It can be as short as seven weeks and as long as 65 weeks. As the stock comes up to test the old highs, the stock will incur selling pressure by the people who bought at or near the old high. This selling pressure will make the stock price trade sideways with a tendency towards a downtrend for four days to four weeks... then it takes off.

Technical Review

Nvidia - From bull trend to no trend.

2025-08-21 by Tim Straiton

Nvidia closed on Tuesday 19th August at 175.64. The strong bull trend which started in early May 2025 appears to be showing signs of exhaustion as shown in the high value of the choppiness index (55) and also the relatively high value in the ATR/ Bollinger Bandwidth (33).

The Elasticity 2.0 trading system has continually generated profitable buy signals since early May 2025. The most recent buy signal on August 7th 2025 at 189.77 has a target exit at $194.77 and a stop loss at $171.36. It is currently showing a loss of 2.92%.

The 240 minute chart paints a rather negative picture with the rising trendline support level originating from April 2025 having been broken. The Chande Trendscore Indicator has turned bearish and the MACD-V indicator is about to rupture the Zero line to the downside.

It is too early to suggest that the bullish trend is Nvidia is history. Additional Fibonacci upside projection targets based on the recent $86.62 to 153.13 range traded between January and April 2025 are as follows:

$194.23 (61.8%)
$219.64 (100%)
$260.74 (161.8%)
