AB=CDIn this case, AB is equal to CD, which is ideal but not always the case..
You can use the magnet and move the AB leg to the CD position to see if it fits. This pattern when bullish, looks like a downtrend and is sometimes found within a larger downtrend, so be safe. The bearish version would begin with AB, or leg 1 to the upside. In the bullish version, the AB leg is downward as is the CD leg with an uptrace at the BC leg. The retracement (up-tracement leg BC)) can be between 38.2% to 78.6% of the A-B leg, however, an ideal pattern has a retracement of 61.8% to 78.6%. The ideal AB=CD pattern is equal in time and price, with point D being an Fibonacci extension between 127%-161.8% of the B-C leg.
The pattern consists of three legs, with two equal legs labelled AB and CD, together they form a zig-zag shape. For this reason it is sometimes called the 'lightning bolt pattern'.
Plenty of resistance overhead.
The market has been tough and it does not seem to be a good idea to hang around too long.
PE Ratio is high at 90.06. Short interest is around 3.78%. Earnings estimated to be July 28.
Possible Stop below D or where you see support.
