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.

Gold mining stocks on the retreat

2026-03-22 by Tim Straiton

Although gold is under considerable pressure, the outlook seems even worse for gold mining stocks. This development can be easily visualized by looking at the weekly gold to HUI ratio, which currently stands at 6.569 and getting very close to the falling 40 week moving average at 6.615.

Bullish divergence is detected on the 14 week relative strength index and also in the MACD-V indicator. Expect further weakness in gold stocks relative to the price of gold, with focus on the gold to HUI ratio rising toward the Fibonacci 61.8% retracement level of 8.17, based on the 9.88 to 5.40 range traded since February 2024.
