The Descending Broadening Wedge is the opposite of the Ascending Broadening Wedge. It is generally formed during a downtrend. Divergent to the Falling Wedge, where the price action contracts as the pattern mature, the Descending Broadening Wedge widens as the two trend lines that have formed diverge from one another.
The descending broadening wedge is measured to be a reversal pattern and is bullish. Although the pattern is typically a reversal signal, a continuation of the downtrend is still possible.
On a continuation, the wedge will still slope to the downside, but the down-slope will characteristically be found as a pullback within an uptrend. The pattern will slope to the downside within a downtrend on a reversal. Despite continuation or reversal, descending broadening wedges are always bullish.
