A cup and handle formation should follow a trend increase, ideally one that is a few months old;<br \/>\n2. The cup must always precede the handle. The cup must form a rounded bowl shape, with a clear bottom;<br \/>\n3. The cup must last between 1 to 6 months, and the handle between 1 to 4 weeks;<br \/>\n4. The stock\u2019s volume should decrease together with the price during the cup. The volume should increase fast near the end of the handle (when prices begin to rise).<br \/>\n5. The CAHP is a bullish chart pattern that is defined by a chart where a stock drops in value, then rises back up to the original value, then drops a small amount in value, and then rises a small amount in value. It is considered to be a bullish signal. It is usually followed by a sharp rise in value.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CUP AND HANDLE PATTERN (CAHP) a cup preceding its handle Characteristics: 1.
