The indicator efficiently detects these patterns and visually marks them on the chart. It is designed to display confirmation and take profit levels automatically, enabling traders to make informed decisions based on Bulkowski’s rules.

The tool accentuates horn patterns with a connecting line between the horns. Dotted lines highlight the confirmation levels. A label indicating either bullish or bearish conditions appears once the price breaches this level. For potential profits, look towards the dashed line which marks the take-profit point.
