Morning Karen,

Sorry if I wasn't clear.  You are correct, LLUR patterns are not usually
associated with a handle.  MME used to be a LLUR but no longer.  So the
handle it is working on now is not on a LLUR chart pattern but on the cup &
handle (c&h) pattern it is finishing now.  And, good call on guessing the
meaning of LLUR!   I don't recall anyone else guessing that one <grin>

Below is a FAQ of sorts that Katherine, Tom and others have put together for
the group.  It contains some of the abbreviations used here and some useful
links.  I think there is a more up-to-date version but I guess I deleted it.
This one was posted last March.  Welcome to the group.
