Take a look at the 2-year chart of Lululemon (Nasdaq: LULU) below with my added notations:
2-year chart of Lululemon (Nasdaq: LULU)
A rounding bottom is a reversal pattern that is as simple as it sounds: After an extended sell-off, a stock ‘rolls upward’ from the left to right thus forming a potential bottom that, once formed, looks somewhat like a broad ‘U’.
LULU appears to have formed a rounding bottom price pattern (blue) from April until last week. As with any price pattern, a confirmation of the pattern is needed. LULU would confirm its pattern by breaking the $55 resistance (red) that has been created by the rounding bottom pattern.

The Tale of the Tape: LULU seems to have formed a rounding bottom. A long trade could be made on a break above $55 with a stop loss set below that level.
