Inverse Head and Shoulders in crypto

The same structure upside down: three troughs, the middle one lowest, with a neckline across the highs between them.

Schematic. The orange lines are the structure we require; the dashed line is the trigger a close must clear.

How FlowAlpha detects it

Three pivot lows with the centre clearly below the others, outer troughs within tolerance, neckline through the intervening highs, and a confirmed close above it.

Another thin sample, and one where our measured rate has been poor so far. It is published as measured.

How often it actually works

These are our own measurements, not textbook claims. A call counts as a win if price closed 5% in favour before it wicked 5% against, measured from the confirming close over the following 30 days. Everything that resolved is counted, including the failures.
