What is this pattern?

Price coils in a narrowing range. Whichever side breaks, the target is the triangle's starting height in that direction. Before the break the pattern is neutral.

After the breakout, a close beyond the opposite boundary invalidates it.

This is not investment advice. Patterns describe probabilities; the same pattern can resolve differently. Levels use classic technical-analysis measuring rules.
