The Inverse Head and Shoulders is a bullish pattern where the stock is expected
to go up considerably once the stock breaks what is referred to as its “neck line”.
See the Inverse Head and Shoulders below. Also note the bigger than average volume
that pushed it through the neck line on the breakout.
This pattern will have a low followed by an even lower low, followed by a higher
low. Then there will be a break above the neck line.
