This is also a profitable pattern frequently used by Mark Minervini, the million-dollar group champion of the U.S. Investment Championship.When the market encounters resistance and falls back during a strong upward move, forming a wave low, it then begins to consolidate. As trading volume and price fluctuations gradually shrink, the lows keep rising, eventually forming a standard three-bottom pattern.This relatively horizontal or descending convergent trend is usually a continuation pattern within an uptrend, with a relatively high probability of continuing to rise.The breakout at this point is usually accompanied by rising volume and price.Sometimes there may be false breakouts or failed breakouts, followed by a three-bottom correction, meaning a new bottom is formed again. Therefore, it's best not to set our stop-loss near the last bottom.We can set it at the lowest price of the breakout candlestick to minimize losses, or below at least the second low to prevent getting stopped out.You can save this, backtest or keep an eye on the three-bottom VCP pattern; it's definitely worth it. #tesla" datetime: "2026-04-03T13:43:58.000Z" locales: - [en](https://longbridge.com/en/topics/39718796.md) - [zh-CN](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/topics/39718796.md) - [zh-HK](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/topics/39718796.md) author: "[投机实验室](https://longbridge.com/zh-HK/profiles/11154714.md)" --- > 支持的語言: [English](https://longbridge.com/en/topics/39718796.md) | [简体中文](https://longbridge.com/zh-CN/topics/39718796.md) # The three-bottom VCP pattern is better the more st…
