PatternKilled
~90 chart-pattern hypotheses, tested all at once
0 of ~90
patterns that survived multiple-testing correction
In plain English
We tested about ninety chart patterns at once; after correcting for the fact that a few always look good by chance, not one held up.
What it needed
stay significant after correcting for testing ~90 patterns at once

What it got
0 of ~90 survived
Why it's dead
Test ninety patterns and a few will look significant by chance. After correcting for multiple testing, none of ~90 candidate chart patterns survived. This is the honest denominator behind every other entry here.
The detail
~90 pattern hypotheses screened together. With a Benjamini-Hochberg correction for multiple testing applied, zero survived. The handful that looked significant raw were false positives from the size of the search itself.
