This is an alphabetical listing of event patterns that shows the performance rank of each event pattern by its
average rise or decline and failure rate. Ties are allowed. A rank of 1 means the event pattern has the highest
post breakout rise or decline or the smallest failure rate. N/A means the event pattern uses a different
method to gauge performance than the other event patterns (usually the measure from the breakout to the swing high or
swing low, not to the highest high or lowest low before a trend change). Thus, a performance comparison would be
unfair and meaningless. For more information see the book
Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns, Second Edition.
