The Pattern Library

After an indisputable harsh winter — a massive, fear-driven sell-off — price stops falling. The RL10 carves a V, crosses up through the Dragon, the Parabolic SAR flips. You don't catch the falling knife; you take the seat at the table after it lands. Target: reversion to the 30-day mean.

The relief rally fails. Price drops below the previous RL10 swing low, breaches the belly of the Dragon, and panic selling ignites as trapped buyers hit their stops. The pattern that pays you for being patient through the bounce.

Versatile continuation. In an uptrend: after a previous successful trade (like an SSC), wait for the pullback to form a higher low, then enter when price breaches the previous high. Inverse for downtrends. The follow-through entry that compounds your first read.

Bullish continuation or reversal. Triggers when price and the RL10 break out above a previous resistance hump or the skin of the Dragon. The signal that the wait is over and direction has resumed.

A strict reversal pattern designed to capture momentum after an extreme move. Requires an unambiguous directional move, RL10 crossing RL30 outside the river, RL10 crossing the Dragon, Dragon sloping up, and RL30 rolling up. Named for the patient observation it demands.

A tactical continuation entry that gets you in BEFORE the Emerging Dragon completes. In the pocket after RL10 crosses the Dragon but before it breaks through previous resistance — you enter while the patient money is still waiting for confirmation.

Volatility compression. The Z3 Bollinger Band lines compress so tightly they fit inside a single Frog Box — a sideways quiet channel — setting up an explosive breakout. Direction-neutral; trade the breakout, not the prediction.

Five lower closes in a row signal fearful overreaction. Bi-directional setup: bracket the high and low of the fifth day, take the trade in whichever direction price breaks first. No prediction; pure execution.

Severely oversold long-term and short-term (Williams %R below -80), but the most recent day shows a higher low and a higher close. Buy the breakout. If the pattern fails, it inverts into a massive short signal — the same setup pays both ways.

Bull-market strategy. A stock trading above its 200-day moving average drops into a 10-day oversold condition. Creates a buy-on-dip opportunity to return to fair value. Disciplined dip-buying without the wishful thinking.

Bull-market system for sharp, one-day gap downs driven by news. Buy the dip, targeting a rapid reversion to the 10-day high. The market punished a stock too hard for too short a reason.

Continuation pattern. Stock above its 5-week close, pulled back from its 5-day high, showing a 1-day momentum recovery, sitting in the bottom half of its 10-day Williams %R range. Four conditions; clean trigger.

Compound critical state — a symbol in the bottom decile of BOTH its 150-day AND 30-day ranges. Prolonged pain compounded by recent pain. Two outcomes: massive dead-cat bounce or continued catastrophic collapse. Both tradeable. Neither buy-and-hold.

Exceptional upward move with outsized volatility. Two plays: immediate continuation breakout, or sudden reversion to the mean. The pattern that pays both sides — if you know which one to read.

Intraday momentum patterns used immediately at the opening bell. The Hybrid Frog brackets the opening price with a fractional risk box and enters on the immediate breakout — direction-neutral, explosive momentum, before the rest of the market has finished its coffee.
