A bull flag is a bullish chart pattern that typically occurs within an uptrend and signals a continuation of the existing trend after a brief consolidation period. It consists of two main components:

1. **Pole (Flagpole):** This is the initial strong upward move in price, which forms the flagpole. It represents a rapid increase in buying pressure.

2. **Flag:** After the pole is formed, there's a period of consolidation where the price trades within a narrow range, forming a rectangular or a slightly downward-sloping pattern. This consolidation phase is called the flag.

The pattern is completed when the price breaks out of the flag in the same direction as the prior pole, signaling a continuation of the uptrend. Traders often look for increased volume during the breakout as confirmation of the pattern.

Bull flags are considered reliable patterns, but like all technical analysis tools, they're not foolproof and should be used in conjunction with other indicators or analysis methods.
