What the bull flag is
A fast rise, a short calm pause, then price breaks out of the pause.
Imagine a runner who sprints fast, stops for a short breather, then sprints again. A bull flag is like that: a fast rise called the pole, then a small, calm pause called the flag. When price breaks out of the top of the flag, the next sprint may be starting.
