Screens · Cup and handle

19 broke out market-wideUpdated · Sep 18, 2026

Since the last runDid it work?

Nothing moved on Cup and handle today — nothing broke out, nothing new started forming, nothing dropped off. That is a reading about the market, not a fault.

How the screens work Backtest these rules

This screen looks for a stock that fell away, curved back up over several weeks, and then paused briefly near the top of that curve. The curve is the cup and the pause is the handle. Three things are checked rather than assumed: the low sits in the middle of the base and not at either edge, because a low at the left edge is a recovery and a low at the right edge is still a fall; both sides come back to a similar height; and the pause near the end is shallow and sits high in the cup, because a deep late drop is a second leg down. It is the most recognisable shape here and, like the others, it is a description rather than a forecast.
