Concept:
The market has been making new highs at a somewhat steady pace before suddenly rapidly picking up pace. New highs begin forming after small retraces. These frequent drives to new highs suggest franctiness amongst buyers. Eventually, the built-up pressure is released.

Use:
Spotting a three drive pattern doesn't necessarily warrant a counter-trend position. However, with trend traders should take profit or move up stops to protect against a potential reversal. Can be used as a factor of confluence.
