Hi Patrick: I'm new to the group and would like to say thanks -- you are a great educator. You consistently reinforce key principles which over time sink in. Well done. I'm curious whether you look for other patterns besides the cup and handle and the shelf? For example double bottom or head and shoulders patterns, etc? I'd also like to know whether you have found value in the Volatility Contraction Pattern (VCP) referenced in Mark Minervini's books? The VCP seems to be somewhat similar (in principle) to the cup and handle, however it would be great to get your perspective on this and other constructive chart patterns. Thanks and keep up the excellent work!
