Investopedia explains 'Mat Hold Pattern'
The mat hold pattern is considered a very reliable but rare indicator in the technical analysis of stocks. It is often confused with the rising three's indicator, with the difference being that the trades on days two to four of the rising three indicator generally stay within the high and low established on the first day. The trading range of days two to four in the mat hold pattern can trade outside of the high-low range made on the first day.
