Not that I wanna get into this with you again because we went round and circles last time on this exact subject….. But a head and shoulders bottom is a MAJOR TREND REVERSAL pattern that occurs in DOWN trends.
There is no downtrend here. This is a pullback in an uptrend.
It is just a big high-2 bull flag. The 20 minute chart will show the H2 clearer. The hourly shows a H1 Bull flag.
It’s sort of shaped like a head and shoulders but the context is wrong for this to be a H&S bottom. It’s just a bull flag that’s been made a bit big and crazy because of an economic event.
Huh! I stand corrected. If Al says head and shoulders bottom bull flags are a thing then it’s a thing!
I’m pretty sure this is not covered in the course content.

Why do you label b7 as MTR? The trend is up and this is continuation, not a reversal.
Hi Daniel,
There are several perspectives on this. One way to view it is that the attempt by the higher low to push prices lower failed, which resulted in a price Reversal and establishing a Major Trend.
But what happens when higher low leads to 2LT or wedge top?
With that said, I could see a perspective of an attempted L2 at the open swing setup (somewhat common) that failed. In any case it was a bad sell signal, but confusing (to me) to call it MTR.
But doesn't matter, as long as you understand the action, just wanted to see your perspective. Thanks!
