Confirmation Bar

What it means

Some tools require one or more additional bars before a structure point or pattern can be treated as confirmed.

What to watch

Confirmation adds reliability, but it also adds delay. Traders should know which labels are still developing.

Where traders usually run into this

• RSI Divergence Marker keeps this term attached to a real indicator instead of leaving it as standalone jargon.
