Forming Patterns (predictive — not confirmed)

Head & Shoulders bearish forming

75% built

Possible head & shoulders top — not confirmed. Watch for a daily close below ~139.60 (neckline) to confirm, with measured-move risk toward ~89.24. A push back above 175.52 weakens the pattern; reclaiming 189.96 invalidates it.

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