What a secular bullish trend looks like: Micron (MU)A secular bull market is a long-lasting shift in an industry that leads to substantial growth over a long period of time (crypto/electric vehicles/semi-conductors/e-commerce, etc)
Micron is a good example of a stock in an industry that's in a secular bull market and has some great classical charting patterns on a short term (daily) and long term basis (monthly+).

Micron is at an interesting spot here as it tests its former April 2021 highs and January 2000 highs, just under the $100 level - also known as the "Century Mark Rule" by Jesse Livermore
From Reminiscence of a Stock Operator, Jesse Livermore is long a copper stock of the early 1900s as it passes up through the $300 price level. This triggers his rule, which goes as follows: "It was an old trading theory of mine that when a stock crossed $100, $200 or $300 for the first time the price does not stop there but goes a good deal higher, so that if you buy it as soon as it crosses the line it is almost certain to show you a profit."
No matter how good a long term trend looks there's no certainty it won't fail, but getting the probabilities on your side is the name of the game. MU hits those checkmarks well.
