Cup and Handle Rising Wedge

NASDAQ:PAYX   Paychex, Inc.
Long entry 90.65 when rising narrowing wedge is no longer an issue


A candle wich has broken through bottom trendline of a bearish rising wedge. Average fall is 35% and pattern is valid when bottom trendline is broken. PAYX has been in several rising wedges since the bottom and has not slowed down much,, appears to be on a mission!

support at 90.75ish

I can not win them all! and
