As 'Above' so 'Below' - the harmony of natureIn this real world, there is various philosophy that tries to explain the "As above, so below" harmony is the great law of nature but none can prove this law hence it's still a hypothesis.
The law of nature works on everything and the stock market is not untouched by nature.
I am not here to give a lecture on this law of nature but to prove how this harmony of nature is preserved in the stock market and to share my research work on 'Stock-et' science which is equally difficult as 'Rocket' science.
Many of you have heard of these famous patterns:-
'Head and Shoulder'
'Cup and Handle'
'Rounding Top/Bottom'
'Flag/Pennant'
'Double Top/Bottom'
Do you all observe some correlation among them?
They all are candlestick patterns that either decide reversal or continuation, if this was your observation then probably you are correct but I wasn't indicating this.
Let me explain to you what kind of relationship I was talking about.
How do we estimate the target of these patterns? To the target level, we first measure the depth of the pattern i.e. how deep it's below the breakout level.
As its depth is below so will the height above.
Now, I think you all can draw how this law of nature is respected here in the candlestick pattern or more precisely in the stock market.
Let’s have an example to be more sound:-
The above chart describes how the CUP pattern works following this law of nature.
The stock after the breakout rallied non-stop to attain the e height of +94% which was the depth of the cup pattern.
After attaining the target or say 'equilibrium' stock witnessed a jerk, not before that.
This proves how the market preserves "As above, so below" harmony, the great law of nature.
Still not convinced then look to another example,
This is the vice-versa of the previously explained example, here stock attains the depth of -17% i.e. ' equilibrium' after forming a Head and Shoulder pattern with a height of shoulder +17%.
This proves how the market preserves "As below, so above" harmony, the great law of nature.
Now let's look at this concept with different dimensions i.e. dimensions of mathematics, physics, and chemistry.
Don’t be afraid I'm not going to talk about 'rocket' science but 'stock-et' science.
[list [
In math, we all have read negative and positive cancels out i.e. (-3+3=0) same in candlestick patterns if the stock has a pattern depth of then the pattern target would be +30% to attain '0' or say 'equilibrium'.
In physics, we all have read that negative charges neutralize the positive charge to attain 'equilibrium' same in the stock market.
In chemistry, we all have read that all chemical changes occur in nature to attain 'equilibrium' i.e. two elements share their electrons to attain 'stability' (H2O, here two hydrogen molecules share their 1 electron with 6 electrons of oxygen to attain equilibrium) this same happens in markets all market movements occur to attain 'stability'.
Generally, people have fantasies about 'Rocket' science but we traders have fantasies about 'Stock-et' science.
Please drop comments on whether you have a fantasy for any of the above science.
Also, let me know how many of you believe that the stock market doesn't work on speculation but has its science
let's call it 'Stock-et' science.
W-patterns
Flag Pattern (Flag and Pole Pattern)A flag pattern is a trend continuation pattern, appropriately named after it’s visual similarity to a flag on a flagpole. Flag patterns can be bullish or bearish.
1. Flagpole: A line extending up from this break to the high of the flag/pennant forms the flagpole. The flagpole is the distance from the first resistance or support break to the high or low of the flag. The sharp advance (or decline) that forms the flagpole should break a trend line or resistance/support level.
2. Flag: A flag is a small rectangle pattern that slopes against the previous trend. If the previous move was up, then the flag would slope down. If the move was down, then the flag would slope up. The price action just needs to be contained within two parallel trend lines.
3. Break: For a bullish flag, a break above resistance signals that the previous advance has resumed. For a bearish flag, a break below support signals that the previous decline has resumed.
4. Volume: Volume should be heavy during the advance or decline that forms the flagpole. Volume contracts during the flag's formation and expands right after the resistance/support breakout.
5. Target: The length of the flagpole can be applied to the resistance break or support break of the flag to estimate the advance or decline.
Cup and Handle PatternA Cup and Handle pattern is a bullish continuation pattern that resembles a teacup on a candle chart followed by a breakout. The cup part of the pattern is where the price gradually changes its direction from bearish to bullish. The handle part is when the price pullback slightly before roars higher and continues the previous trend. Cup and handle is used to understand the reinforcement of the trend and explains in case you want to double your position or sustain the position for a longer time period. This pattern can take between 30 to 60 candles to form on any given time resolution.
1. Cup: The cup should be “U” shaped and resemble a bowl or rounding bottom. Generally, cups with longer and more “U” shaped bottoms, the stronger the signal. The cup should not be too deep. The depth of the cup should retrace 1/3 or less of the previous advance. Volume should dry up on the decline and remain lower than average in the base of the bowl.
2. Handle: After the high forms on the right side of the cup, there is a pullback that forms the handle. The smaller the retracement, the more bullish the formation and significant the breakout. Sometimes this handle resembles a flag.
If the right side of the handle breaks above the peak formed between the cup and the handle, it confirms that the pattern is complete and that the uptrend will resume. There should be a substantial increase in volume on the breakout above the handle's resistance. The projected advance after breakout can be estimated by measuring the distance from the right peak of the cup to the bottom of the cup.
Understanding patterns - PART 1Patterns have been in use for as long as technical analysis have existed and are working today also, traders all over the world try to find patterns in chart to anticipate the possibility of the next move for any Index or stock. Pattern have a reason for working this greatly because all the patterns have an underlying psychology behind it and all these are driven by none other than the human emotions that lie behind them.
What are patterns?
According to John J Murphy "Price patterns are pictures or formations, which appear on price charts of stocks or commodities, that can be classified into different categories, and have a predictive value."
Putting it simply these are formations of candles which take a special shape when seen together and give you an idea of the future possible move of any script.
Why do patterns work?
Patterns work because they are the depiction of human emotions in the market and clearly shows what the traders in the market want a stock or commodity to do in a particular timeframe, now it must be odd and you may be thinking that how can a simple pattern or movement of the candles can tell you what is going inside the minds of people. Let me give you an idea so that you understand what is it that I mean by reading the minds of the traders using pattern and understanding what they want a particular stock or commodity to do.
The chart that you see above is hindalco which is listed on NSE.
To understand this let me tell you about the white lines you see, these are called trendlines and are made by connecting highs to highs or lows to lows to get an idea of the trend on current ongoing move or to make a pattern.
The pattern you see above is called ascending triangle pattern and is a bullish structure that when gives a breakout the stock or commodity gives a run for the upside.
Now the answer to the the question why ascending triangle pattern is bullish and how we get to anticipate the future movement lies in the human emotion or psychology that made this pattern in the market and it will also explain how you understand the human emotion in the market depicted as pattern.
This ascending triangle pattern is made by joining two line which I have named as trendline 1/resistance & trendline 2/support.
Trendline 1/Resistance shows us that the bears are not willing to let the price go beyond the levels of 470 and are shorting the stock near that price. Bears are wanting the stock to remain below the 470 price level.
Trendline2/Support tells us that the bulls are buying the stock on higher prices again and again that's the reason the trendline is inclined, bulls are wanting the stock to go up.
Now all of this tells us that right now bulls are more aggressive than the bears as bears are not willing to short below the price of 470 but bulls are ready to buy the stock at higher price and are the reason the price keeps surging up.
There comes a time when both the lines meet and there is no buffer space left between buyers and sellers and the price can now only go in single direction now, so bulls being more aggressive breaks the resistance of 470 and the price moves above it. Now there are two things that are going to happen:
1. More buyers will come in to buy as the resistance is broken making the price rally even more.
2.Short positions will have to be covered for, which will yet again make the price move up.
So that is how a mere pattern of a triangle joined by two line made you see the emotions of the traders inside the market and thus anticipate the future movement of price. Now this concept applies to all of the patterns there are in the market, some will be as simple as this one while others being more complex but all of these will make you a better trader letting you anticipate the movement.
This was the end of Part one of this series in which I'll be trying to make you understand patterns and trade more effectively using them.
The Next part will be the two main categories of pattern which will be in more depth and will actually help you anticipate the prices and add these pattern into your trading style.
If you have read it far enough so please give it a like and do follow me for the next part which I'll try to drop on the next weekend.
Descending Triangle Pattern Real-Time education.This pattern important role in the breakout to the downside (Some analysts believe that increased volume is not all that important).We always consider the strength or weakness of volume as being the "straw that stirs the drink."
Let see what will happen here minutely and something we can conclude.
How can we trade descending triangles?
Let's check below will reliable or not on real-time.
Typically you want to buy after the pattern breaks resistance. It is good practice to set a stop-loss just below the last significant high.

Tails and When to use it?TAIL, This is a reversal of prior trend pattern that shows up as one candle reaching out well beyond normal price action. Sometimes referred to as a Hammer which is used to spot signs of a reversal indication .
For Example, 1 Tail at a value low and Psychologically, this can signal exhaustion in the selling mentality and a developing appetite for long exposure among traders. Being able to read this market behavior will add value to a trader’s analysis. Furthermore, the same sort of reversal in emotion can be seen in the other direction. Vice versa, 3 Tails at Value high and seen price rejection and change in direction.
The " volume " surged 2x from average volume when TAIL is created.
3 Tails at " Value High " of the channel and 1 Tail at the " Value Low " of the channel.
Educational 17: Rising Three Method- Bullish Candlestick PatternRising Three Method - Bullish Continuation Pattern
A bullish continuation candlestick pattern that is used to predict the continuation of the current uptrend. This pattern is formed when the candlesticks meet the following characteristics:
1. The first candle in the pattern is a long White/Green candlestick within a defined uptrend.
2. A series of descending small-bodied candlesticks that trade within the range of the first candlestick. Three inside bodies also counted as consolidation period before continuation of the uptrend.
3. A long White/Green candlestick creates a new high, which indicates that buyers are back in control of the direction and the trend shall resume and go further up.
I encourage you to find a chart with this pattern and share your experience to bring confidence and clarity to other traders on this pattern.
I appreciate your support,
