There's also merit for a another Inverse H&S to play out here, after a few more trading days next week we may see the shoulder continue to develop or a retest of the bottom upward sloping line of the Ascending Triangle, which would also negate the inverse H&S narrative, but the bottom of the ascending triangle could still hold & result in a bullish outcome, keep in mind these patterns have a tendency to finish roughly 70% to 80% way through the pattern in either direction frequently.

An ascending triangle is a chart pattern used in technical analysis. It is created by price moves that allow for a horizontal line to be drawn along the swing highs, and a rising trendline to be drawn along the swing lows. The two lines form a triangle. Traders often watch for breakouts from triangle patterns. The breakout can occur to the upside or downside. Ascending triangles are often called continuation patterns since the price will typically breakout in the same direction as the trend that was in place just prior to the triangle forming.
Key Takeaways The trendlines of a triangle need to run along at least two swing highs and two swing lows. Ascending triangles are considered a continuation pattern, as the price will typically breakout of the triangle in the price direction prevailing before the triangle. Although, this won't always occur. A breakout in any direction is noteworthy.
