Blue Sky breakouts are different from coils since this set-up remains above the 20-day EMA and have not completed the 6-week time requirement. Support and resistance lines can be observed when zooming in to hourly charts. This set-up usually appears in strong bull or momentum markets. Confine stock picking in sectors or markets demonstrating strength.
Set-up:
Price has to be at least 6-month high, preferably ATH
Consolidation which lasts for 2 weeks (maximum of 4 weeks) and has to be above the 20-day EMA.
Almost no price retracement.
Trigger:

Execution:
Break of pattern resistance with strong impulsive break out candles supported by above average volume
Management:
Price Targets set through Fibonacci Extension
If price retraces and hits stop loss point, set-up may be turning into a coil and may need more time to complete.
