The cup-with-handle pattern is a bullish continuation pattern that was popularized by William O'Neil of IBD. The handle marks a small consolidation near resistance and the breakout confirms the pattern. With the cup measuring around three points from low to high, chartists can project a three point move from the rim breakout, which targets a move to the 29.5 area (26.5 + 3 = 29.5).
