All is well, as we have Thomas Bulkowski's history of patterns & statistical setups to guide us along together.
Ethereum has already invalidated the single bust .
It is time to explore the Double Bust IH&S chart pattern, & look for these elements:
Price must confirm the head-and-shoulders bottom by closing above the neckline or right armpit (A).
Price rises no more than 10% before reversing.
Price closes below the bottom of the chart pattern (B). This busts the pattern for the first time.
Price drops no more than 10% below the bottom of the head-and-shoulders bottom.
Price closes above the top of the head-and-shoulders bottom. This busts the chart pattern for the second time (C).
The stock rises more than 10% above the top of the head-and-shoulders bottom.
A double busted head-and-shoulders bottom turns into a triple bust when the rise after the second bust is no more than 10% and price then closes below the bottom of the chart pattern.
