The ongoing difficulty in testing/trading a chart pattern is in 
identifying the pattern unambiguously. I haven't seen that done - 
although it isn't inherently impossible.

A prime difficulty with Bulkowski's work is he "eye-balled", rather 
than define chart patterns specificly (encode it). He has 
downloadable software on his site for pattern identification - a 
small step in the right direction.
