Cup with Handle Pattern
Cup with Handle Pattern Indicator – Description
This Cup with Handle Pattern Indicator is designed to visually identify one of the most powerful bullish continuation patterns in technical analysis — the Cup with Handle.
🔍 What It Detects
The indicator scans for the classic "U-shaped" cup formation followed by a slight downward drift (the handle), which often precedes a breakout.
Once a valid pattern is detected, it plots a green triangle below the price bar at the point of breakout — where the price crosses above recent highs after consolidation.
⚙️ Key Features
Customizable Duration: The cup length can be adjusted (default is 150 bars), allowing flexibility based on the timeframe and asset.
Automatic Breakout Detection: The indicator uses a combination of relative highs, lows, and ATR (Average True Range) to ensure valid setups.
No repainting: Signals are plotted only after confirmation, making this suitable for live trading or backtesting.
🛠️ How It Works
Left Cup High: Detected based on historical highs before the low.
Cup Low: The lowest point within the cup duration.
Right Cup High: A recent high before breakout.
Breakout Point: Triggered when price crosses above the 30-bar high after the handle formation.
Validity Checks: Ensures the structure has a proper depth, symmetry, and volatility conditions using ATR.
📊 Visual Elements
Green Triangle Up: Plotted below bar at the breakout.
Blue Line: Closing price.
✅ Ideal For:
Swing traders and position traders looking for high-probability breakout entries.
Chart analysts who want to automate the detection of classic base-building patterns.
Educational and training purposes for pattern recognition.
