Breakout patterns
Every breakout shares the same four parts: a strong prior leg, a tight base, a pivot, and the follow-through. What changes is the shape of the base. These are the setups the scanner ranks and the drill teaches, each with how to spot it, where the entry and stop go, and real historical examples you can study.
Sideways Base Breakout
A tight sideways shelf that refuses to give back the prior run. Quiet strength before the next leg.
