Is anyone recognizing the H&S pattern on FLR?

I'm not an expert on this pattern buy it seems like peaks should be
where the dips are (June/July "the shoulders")

So I don't know if this is a "classic" HS pattern.

In any case just by looking at the chart it seems a fall to new lows would
mean a lot of weakness ahead.

Good one to keep an eye on.


Thanks

Well the elements of the formation are ther if you really look into it starting mid may, but it is not a clear formation. Also it hasn't completed just yet. It has to clear the neckline at about 82.5.
good luck

Regardless of the constellation (i'm a pattern cynic and can actually see 2 h&s patterns - one on the right shoulder of the bigger Jan - Aug pattern), the volume accompanying the drop from the 09May high was that of a buying climax. The momentum from that top was strong, but not overwhelming and has turned somewhat neutral, so i'd say we still have downward bias.

It's not real weak on a rs plot vs. DWC--X, so you'd think there would be some better prospects for shorting, but you do have a well defined stop above 91.60 that will make it easy to choose your position size and exit if you choose to take the trade.
