A Cup & Handle reversal pattern forms after a downtrend, and its completion marks a trend reversal to uptrend.
C&H patterns are an integral part of technical analysis, but successful traders combine these techniques with technical indicators and other forms of technical analysis to maximize their odds of success.
In the standard Cup & Handle pattern, we connect the high after Cup with the high created after the handle. A trend line is drawn by connecting these highest points of the two peaks, which is called as 'Neckline'. This trend line is the most important component of C&H pattern.
Motherson Sumi is having a strong resistance line standing around Rs 84 levels indicating strong bullish breakout only above these levels. Recent formation of Cup and Handle pattern will give a breakout on a close above Rs 84 mark which suggests buying in the stock for higher targets of Rs 110. Volume can also add further insight while trading these patterns. Decent volume participation while giving breakout is also giving support to C&H pattern.
