How BananaPatterns works?

We run a handful of screens — each hunts a different kind of setup. Pick one to see its anatomy — what it looks for, and why.

The anatomy of a breakout

How we narrow the market down

The trade, once it triggers

Cut losers fast, let winners run

Risk is decided before entry — about 1.5% of capital on any one trade. From there it's calm and consistent: protect first, then give a winner room to breathe.

Course · coming soon Want to really learn this, step by step?

We're thinking of building a proper course — the full playbook, real worked examples, and how to actually run it without losing your shirt. We'll only build it if enough people want it. Tell us you're in.

⚖️
It's probabilities, not predictions. BananaPatterns is wrong more often than it's right — it wins on roughly 1 in 3 trades. It works because the few winners are far larger than the many small, capped losses. That asymmetry is the entire edge — and it only shows up over many trades, through real drawdowns.

About us

Chart patterns, explained simply.

BananaPatterns is a small, honest place to learn how certain shapes show up again and again in stock charts — explained in plain English, using real examples from Indian companies. We don't give tips or tell you what to buy. We just try to help you understand what you're looking at, at your own pace.

Honestly? This isn't a fund, and it isn't a robot firing off signals. It's a personal project — built by someone learning to read these patterns the same way you are, who got tired of the hype and wanted to see the plain version: the losses shown next to the wins, the method laid bare, nothing dressed up.

The screening runs on a computer because a person can't watch 4,000 charts a night — but the thinking behind it is old, human, and hard-won: be patient, cut mistakes quickly, and give the rare good idea room to run. If anything here is unclear or feels off, tell us — support@bananapatterns.com.

No tips, no hype

No buy-or-sell calls, no promises of quick money — just how one common pattern behaves.

The whole picture

Patterns don't always work. We show the wins and the losses — nothing cherry-picked.

Learning, not advice

Every liquid stock, measured after the close

The base it is in

S H Kelkar and Company has been building a base for 90 weeks, 66% deep from its high inside that range, under a ceiling at ₹327. It closed at ₹170, 48.0% under that pivot — a close above it is what sets the setup off.

Inside the base, the swings in the second half of the base ran 0.64× the first half — tightening, which is the contraction the pattern is named for; and trading volume through the base ran 1.07× its earlier pace.

What its strength reading says

Relative strength 33 means S H Kelkar and Company has outrun 33% of every liquid stock on the Indian market over the past year. That is lower-half performance — it has lagged most of the market.

Price sits +23.8% against its 50-day average and +9.5% against its 200-day. Both averages are beneath the price, the trend backdrop the method asks for.

It is 36% below its 52-week high and 51% above its 52-week low.

Where it sits in its industry

S H Kelkar and Company is one of 117 companies we track in Chemicals & Petrochemicals, within the Specialty Chemicals subgroup. That industry ranks 22nd of 56 by relative strength, and 6 of its companies broke out of a base this week.

Others in the same industry, strongest first: Yasho Industries (relative strength 99), Rain Industries (relative strength 94), Fineotex Chemical (relative strength 93), Aether Industries (relative strength 93), Stallion India Fluorochemicals (relative strength 91), Indo Borax & Chemicals (relative strength 90).

Its market value is about ₹1,937 crore, and it has been listed for 10 years.

Its 2026 record

S H Kelkar and Company has completed 4 bases that broke out in 2026.

The 11-week base under ₹156 broke out on 29 July 2026, and is +9.3% from that level.

The 5-week base under ₹144 broke out on 27 July 2026, and is +18.2% from that level.

The 3-week base under ₹136 broke out on 16 June 2026, and is +24.8% from that level — that run has since ended (closed below its 50-day line).

The 2-week base under ₹149 broke out on 7 May 2026, and is +14.2% from that level — that run has since ended (hit its −8% stop).

How to read this page

Every figure here is read off the daily record after the close: the base and its ceiling come from the price history, relative strength ranks this stock against every other liquid Indian stock, and the breakout dates are the sessions on which price closed above the pivot. BananaPatterns is an educational tool for studying chart patterns — this page describes what the chart has done, and says nothing about what it will do next.
