What the head and shoulders is
Three peaks with the middle one highest, then a break below the neckline.
Picture a person's head and two shoulders from behind: a shoulder, a taller head, then another shoulder. A head and shoulders pattern is three price peaks shaped like that. When price falls below the line under the shoulders, called the neckline, the pattern is complete.
