⚠ Risk Signals

Head & Shoulders Top Neckline ~31.73 has broken. Measured-move risk extends toward ~27.18; a fast reclaim of 31.73 would be a failed breakdown (often bullish).

Double Top Double Top (confirmed): peaks $34.92 and $35.38 (2026-08-27) with the neckline at $31.73. neckline $31.73 broken on a closing basis 9 bars ago. Measured move targets $28.31; invalidation above $36.09. Research/educational only, not a buy/sell recommendation.

Bearish structure on the daily chart — a heads-up for anyone holding, not a short signal. Does not affect the bullish setup score.

Forming Patterns (predictive — not confirmed)

Falling Wedge bullish forming

71% built

Possible falling wedge — selling pressure narrowing. Watch for a break above falling resistance ~31.73 to confirm a reversal higher; a close below ~30.15 invalidates it.

Predictive pattern recognition is educational — most forming structures never confirm. Wait for the confirmation level before treating this as a setup.
