Island Reversal (bullish) Pattern — what it is and how to read it

Bullish pattern Classic and harmonic chart patterns

Price breaks away with a DOWNWARD gap, trades for a few bars as a separate 'island', then returns with an UPWARD gap: the sellers were trapped. It counts as completed the moment the upward gap forms.

How to read it

A bullish structure is only a candidate until its trigger (neckline / breakout level) is broken. StockFortuna draws the ▲ marker only on a green candle that closes above the trigger — a description of what the chart did, not a recommendation.
