The last 8 times

Counted by the Trading Class research engine on real past candles: entry at the signal candle's close, target 1.5 × ATR(14), stop 1 × ATR(14), 12 candles to decide, a candle that touches both counts as the stop. How we count. Past data, not a forecast and not advice.

What the double bottom is

Two lows at the same level, then a break above the peak between them.

Jump on a trampoline and you sink to the same low spot twice, but the second push sends you higher than before. A double bottom looks like the letter W: two lows at the same level with a hill between them. When price climbs above that hill, the W is complete.
