Chart Patterns

Head & Shoulders PatternBearish Head and Shoulders pattern Type: Bearish Reversal Prior Trend: Bullish Look: Like human body head & shoulders Right shoulder: Right shoulder is formed when prices correct after a sustained up trend Head: once the correction is over prices resume their uptrend and make a new high that is prices start a rally to new highs than the prior high which was cloaked after a sustained up trend. Left shoulder: Prices reverse and retreat almost to the point from where they started their rally and resume their uptrend however this time prices this time not only fail to make a new high and also unable to reach the prior high. In most cases, the rally is limited to the height of the left shoulder around it gives and takes 2 to 3 percent. Neckline: A-line joining the low point of the left shoulder to the low point of the right shoulder. Pattern confirmation point: Break of neckline Pattern Target: Height of the head calculated from neckline deducted from the breakdown point of neckline Confirmation needed: Must Pattern failure point: when prices come back 50% of the Right shoulder length to the neckline point that is 50% retracement of the neckline point to the right shoulder Example: CBOT Corn is currently forming a bearish head and shoulders pattern with a neckline placed at USc720. The left shoulder height is from 723 to 823 while the head length is from 723 to 824 so around 100 points is the head length from the left shoulder and the right shoulder height is from 723 to 798. The neckline breakdown point is 723 and deducting 100 from 723 gives around 623 targets on the downside. The conservative target is 50% which comes to around 673. Traders Tip: Try to correlate with three different moving averages to improve pattern efficacy.

'SWING' your profits with 'SWING' trading strategies !!! In a series of educational posts we have covered so far the candlestick patterns and moving average crossovers, in this post we will elaborately cover the swing trading strategies. Let's start !! ->Definition of swing trading - : Swing trading is generally referred to a trade which is carried out for a short duration of time. Swing traders do not wait till the price action opposes there direction, they are known for there prior moves. They are good in identifying the shifts in market trend with the help of various techniques which is explained throughout this idea. Swing trading strategies include use of Fibonacci, Bollinger Bands, Channel Trading, Moving Average, MACD crossover and better understanding of chart patterns like Head & Shoulder, Flag, Triangle Patterns. All the above said patterns has been covered in the previous ideas on continuation patterns. ->Swing trading strategies -: ->Fibonacci Retracement: Stock price has an tendency to retrace, and swing traders uses this retracement as an opportunity to enter in a trend. The retracement levels could be identified using Fibonacci Retracement, all you need is to identify the prior trend and if price retraces till 0.618 level and again resumes the trend jump on it and ride the position till it reaches 0.236 level. ->Bollinger Bands : Most probably, stock price tries to move in Bollinger band, which is used by swing trader to initiate and terminate there position. Firstly you need to identify the major trend, let suppose it's bearish then when the price reaches the upper bound and there is a formation of bearish candle you could initiate a short position also when a bearish candle is formed at median, there also you can initiate a short position. ->Channel Trading: Sometimes, stock price trades in channel now this channel is used by swing traders i.e. when the trend is bullish they try to take long position at lower range of channel and book partial profits on median and wait for price to reach upper end. ->Moving Average: Here traders identify the major trend and take position according to it, with help of crossovers they generally prefer 10DEMA crosses 20DEMA. ->MACD: This is a simple strategy where the trades are initiated when there is MACD crossover but the cross should corelate the trend. My Observation-: These strategies could be more accurate if used to trade with trend, i.e. if the stock is in uptrend only take positions for positive signal and just avoid negative signals. Another, basic strategy is to take position when a script moves above swing high or below swing low, here the only thing to ponder is to manage your risk. Don't take over position understand your risk appetite then take positions.

Reversal candlestick patterns1.Bullish Engulfing : The first candlestick is a red one, and the second is green. A green one “engulfs” the red one because the body has a lower opening price and a higher closing price 2. Evening Star : You need three candlesticks to see this Evening Star pattern, a green candle with a long body, a short green or red candle, and a red candlestick. 3. Dark Cloud : The price gaps higher and then sells off, creating a candlestick that shows a closing price lower than the midway point in the previous candle. 4. Spinning Top : A spinning top is a candlestick pattern having a short real body with long upper and lower shadows. 5. Tweezzer Bottom : The Tweezer Bottom candlestick pattern is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern that is formed at the end of the downtrend. It consists of two candlesticks, the first one being bearish and the second one being bullish candlestick. 6. Two Black Gapping : The bearish two black gapping continuation pattern appears after a notable top in an uptrend, with a gap down that yields two black bars posting lower lows.

SET ALERTS : we use to watch market continuously and during watch we see so many trades which we should not take, it disturb our trade filtration and also affect out trading phycology, we should wait for our levels and what our set strategy giving trade not to enter early or fake trades, you should set alert according to your levels,chart pattern,breakout or breakdown, any of your trading strategy you are using, there is no need to watch screen constantly in this free time you can also paly any indoor game to keep you mind refreshing and active, once your price alert hit come up on screen then you can go with your trade. VOLATILE HOUR : some time we find trades in sideways or less movementing market and it face us stop loss, no movement or very small target, it's better to took any trade in volatile hours so that trade can exactly work according to your strategy try to avoid trades which are generating in less market movement.

Perfect example of DOUBLE BOTTOM With DIVERGENCENSE:VOLTAS Double bottom is always a perfect pattern for LONG ENTRY. But I prefer to add some more factors which increases my probability to achieve the target. In this analysis tutorial, we will learn that. * After falling wedge pattern breakdown Stock momentum is exhaust near a good Support. - Never Entered in ONE SIDED BREAKDOWN or BREAKOUT. Wait for the Next GOOD SUPPORT - RESISTANCE, Because one sided move Creates a Doubt( maybe its a TRAP for a RETAIL TRADER like us). - ONE SIDED BO-BD can be a FAKE BO-BD ( In Mostly cases ) - And incase, If it's not a Fakeout - Fakedown, But a genuine one and we missed that - DON'T PANIC - Never entered in FOMO because this can spoil our RR. - THIS STRATEGY IS A SOLUTION FOR ALL THE ABOVE SITUATIONS. * And at that support( IN BIGGER TIME FRAME) I Found BULLISH DIVERGENCE. - Divergence is basically a manipulation by a big players. - In Bullish divergence with the help of some OSCILATTORS we see PRICE IS DECREASING but AVERAGE PRICE or STRENGTH or VOLUME is INCREASING. - {Opposite in BEARISH DIVERGENCE} - But if there is not any SUPPORT - RESISTANCE - - - - - IGNORE THAT AND NEVER ENTER. - Because WE FOLLOW ONLY&ONLY PRICE ACTION, Indicators is secondary. - And basic principle of PRICE ACTION is - NEVER ENTERD WITHOUT A SUPPORT RESTISTANCE ZONE OR TRENDLINE SUPPPORT OR ZONE. * When this stock Follows all rules of BULLISH DIVERGENCE I took a LONG ENTRY. - COMMENT if you wants to know all the RULES of DIVERGENCE. * Now chart pattern shows a signal of UPSIDE MOVE and our Divergence setup gives us a confirmation of that SO I ENTERED and ACHIEVED THE TARGET I hope this is helpful for beginners and a good revision for a pro players.

How Double Bottom Pattern looks likeWhat is double bottom pattern? A double bottom pattern is a technical analysis charting pattern that describes a change in trend and a momentum reversal from prior leading price action. It describes the drop of a stock or index, a rebound, another drop to the same or similar level as the original drop, and finally another rebound. How do you trade double bottom patterns? First low – The market bounces higher and forms a swing low. At this point, it’s likely a entrancement in a downtrend. Second low – The market rejects the previous swing low. Now, there’s buying pressure, but it’s too early to tell if the market could continue higher. Break of neckline – The price broke above the Neckline (or Resistance) and it signals the buyers are in control — the market is likely to move higher. ---------------------------------- The False Break : How to trade the Double Bottom Pattern and profit from “trapped” traders Now… When you trade the Double Bottom, you must pay attention to the time and space between the lows — the larger the “gap”, the better. Why? Because when the lows are far apart, it gets the attention of more traders who could push the price higher. As the price breaks below the first low, bearish traders will short the markets and have their stops above the lows. But if the price quickly reverses higher, the short traders are “trapped”. And you can take advantage of it by going long, anticipating if the price moves higher, it’ll trigger their stops and push the market in your favour. __________ The Double Bottom Breakout Technique Here’s the thing: You don’t want to “chase” a breakout after the Double Bottom is formed because the price is likely to reverse lower. Instead, you want to see strength from the buyers before buying a breakout. Here’s how… 1) Identify a potential Double Bottom 2) Let the price to trade break above the previous swing high 3) Wait for a weak pullback to form (a series of small range candles) 4) Buy on the break of the swing high

"Crossover" your limits with "Crossovers" !!!!Through series of educational posts we have got an elaborate knowledge of candlestick pattern which include both reversal and continuation patterns and this post is somewhat different from candlestick it's all about moving average crossovers. General concept of crossover is that a fast moving average surpasses slow one in any directional trend and could help you be in right side, A moving average crossover occurs when two different moving average lines cross over one another, Because moving averages are a lagging indicator, the crossover technique may not capture exact tops and bottoms. But it can help you identify the bulk of a trend. A moving average crossover system helps to answer these three questions: Which direction might the price be trending (if at all)? Where might be a potential entry point for a trend trade? When might a trend be ending or reversing? All you have to do is plop on a couple of moving averages on your chart, and wait for a crossover. If the moving averages cross over one another, it could signal that the trend is about to change soon, thereby giving you the chance to get a better entry. By having a better entry, you have the chance to have better reward. -> Short term crossovers: it includes 5 DEMA crossover 20DEMA , this crossover is for daily timeframe i.e. for short term traders 5DEMA CROSS ABOVE 20DEMA although some move was left out but then also the return was splendor NOTE: crossover give signal only on conformation so some move could be left out. 5DEMA CROSS BELOW 20DEMA -> Long term crossovers: it includes some important crossovers i.e. Golden and Death crosses GOLDEN CROSS: here major moving average crosses each other i.e. 50DEMA cross above 200DEMA it signifies major uptrend in large time frame though we have seen major fall in metal sector but still they are golden cross period DEATH CROSS: here major moving average crosses each other i.e. 50DEMA cross below 200DEMA it signifies major downtrend in large time frame the major fall in nifty was predicted by me earlier with help of this cross In summary, moving average crossovers are helpful in identifying when a trend might be emerging or when a trend might be ending. The crossover system offers specific triggers for potential entry and exit points. These triggers should be confirmed with a chart pattern or support and resistance breakouts My Observation :- short term moving average crossovers could be confirmed with RSI i.e. if RSI is greater than 50 uptrend possible and if less than 50 downtrend possible if it is not the crossover could be false in that case wait for conformation. long term moving average crossovers could be confirmed with RSI i.e. if RSI is greater than 60 uptrend possible and if less than 40 downtrend possible if it is not the crossover could be false in that case wait for conformation.

Studing Consolidation Phase This is hourly timeframe. This is how I analyze the consolidation only technically. From fibo. recent top to bottom, Nifty is taking resistance 0.38 fibonacci level. Let's pointout the short trend and understand each. 1] Nifty started consolidating 6th May 2022. It started falling, gone sideways for sometime and gave bounce back. 2] And it tested the 16400 zone. As it was a straight one side move, it was obvious it will give a retracement. 3] But it was again a one side move, this time downward, and tested the recent bottom. Here, we witnessed a sharp upmove from bottom to top and again to bottom. 4] Again from 20th May, a sharp upmove towards resistance. 5] Tested and fallback this week. 6] Bounce backed again and now near resistance zone. In all of these short term trends, we can see thick bullish and bearish candles in phase 1 and 5. Though bulls failed in these phase. Almost each phase has 1) bullish and bearish belt hold 2) bullish and bearish marubozu Except phase 2,6 no bearish candlestick of this type. These opposite candlestick patterns occurance multiple times tells us that market is now choppy, highly volatile. Outcome of analysis: In current market situation, bulls and bear are almost equally powerful. Choopy moves indicates the aggression and dominating will. This how I analyze a consolidation. Breaks it down in trend zones and study each, and keep in back of the mind each one's outcome, and try to anticipate, every possibility. And how much is the chance of taking it place by looking at bull and bears behaviour. Note : This is my own analysis and is for information purpose only.

Shooting Star - Complete GuideWhat is the Shooting Star candlestick pattern? A shooting star candlestick pattern is a chart formation that occurs when an asset’s market price is pushed up quite significantly, but then rejected and closed near the open price. This creates a long upper wick, a small lower wick and a small body. The upper wick must take up at least half of the length of the candlestick for it to be considered a shooting star. And, it must appear at the top of an uptrend. As a result, the shooting star candlestick pattern is often thought to be a possible signal of bearish reversal. This means an uptrend might not continue (prices may fall). Traders should be careful not to confuse the shooting star pattern with an inverted hammer candlestick pattern. They both have a longer upper wick and small body. But the inverted hammer indicates bullish as opposed to bearish reversal. Also, the inverted hammer is often seen at the bottom of a downtrend. How to recognize it: i) Little to no lower shadow ii) The price closes at the bottom ¼ of the range iii) The upper shadow is about 2 or 3 times the length of the body What does Shooting Star tells you ? i) Shooting stars signals a potential downside reversal ii)A shooting star opens and rises strongly during the trading session, showing the same buying pressure that is seen over the last trading sessions. At the end of the trading session, the sellers push the price down near the open. or At the buying climax, huge selling pressure stepped in and pushed price lower. The selling pressure is so strong that it closed below the opening price. In short, a Shooting Star is a bearish reversal candlestick pattern that shows rejection of higher price. Before trading with the shooting star, one should remember the following points: Trade Entry: Before you enter a shooting star trade, you should confirm that the prior trend is an active bullish trend. Entry is below the Shooting Star candle low. Stop Loss: Place Stop Loss just above the high of Shooting Star candle or above recent high. Taking Profits: Minimum target is the size of the Shooting Star candle. I generally prefer 1:2 as first target. Best way to ride the move is to sit till any bullish signal is sensed. You can target previous swing lows or support zone. Examples- TATAMOTORS NIFTY NAUKRI High Probability Scenario:- i)Focus on the major Resistance levels, that’s where traders get trapped When you trade The Shooting Star candlestick pattern, you want to focus on trading the major Resistance levels (the ones which can be seen on the higher timeframe).When a level is obvious and the price breaks out of it, many traders will hop on the bandwagon and buy the breakout (hoping to catch a piece of the move).However, if the price makes a false breakout, this group of traders is trapped, and their stops will trigger strong selling pressure. Now, this is to your advantage because The Shooting Star candlestick pattern allows you to trade the false breakout and profit from “trapped” traders. So the more obvious the level, the more traders will get trapped — and you make more money. Conclusion So here’s what you’ve learned today: The Shooting Star candlestick is a bearish reversal pattern that shows rejection of higher prices. Just because you a spot a Shooting Star candlestick pattern doesn’t mean you go short immediately because you must also consider the context of the markets. Confirmation to go short is always below shooting star candle's low. Set your stop loss slightly above shooting star candle or above previous highs.

'CONTINUE' trading with 'CONTINUATION' pattern_2nd Edition_!!!In previous idea of continuation pattern, which comprise explanation of some continuation patterns like triangles, flags and pennants it was stated that in next post I'll be back with patterns such as head & shoulder , double top and bottoms and we're back. As we have discussed in the previous section, that market can be either in trending phase or in a range-bound phase. No trend generally lasts forever in the market. After prolonged or medium or shorter duration up and downtrend, the market often reverses and a move starts in the opposite direction of the prior move. Often we find that well defined geometrical patterns are formed in the chart which provides good indication of price reversals. These patterns are called reversal classical chart patterns. When they are formed as a bullish reversal pattern they are said to be part of accumulation. On the other hand if they are formed at the top of a price move just before bearish reversal, then they are part of distribution. However, a geometrically shaped consolidation does not necessarily mean price reversal. Often price resumes the erstwhile trend post the consolidation move. These are called continuation classical chart pattern. We will discuss about few of the classical chart patterns in the following section. -> Head & Shoulder -: Head and Shoulder pattern is a bearish reversal pattern. This pattern appears after an uptrend. This pattern is formed with three consecutive tops with middle one being higher than the other two. The middle top is called the head and the two side peaks are called the shoulders. On joining the intermediate troughs, we get the neck-line. On ultimate break below the neckline, usually a short trade is taken with a stop-loss above the top of the nearest shoulder. The target is usually considered as the distance between the neckline and head, projected from the point of break. If the volume in the down leg of the right shoulder is on the higher side and break happens with high volume, the conviction is on the higher side for the reversal. An Inverse Head and Shoulder is just mirror image of the Head and Shoulder pattern. This should appear after a sustained down trend, the rule of stop loss and target are similar. This often acts as a very effective bullish reversal pattern. -> Double Tops and Bottoms -: These chart patterns are well-known patterns that signal a trend reversal – these are considered to be one of the most reliable patterns and are commonly used. These patterns are formed after a sustained trend and signal to chartists that the trend is about to reverse. These patterns are created when price movement tests support or resistance levels twice and is unable to break through. These patterns are often used to signal intermediate and long-term trend reversals. Double top: Double bottom: -> Mechanism of Continuation Pattern -: Continuation patterns provide some logic to the price action. By knowing the patterns, a trader can create a trading plan to take advantage of common patterns. The patterns present trading opportunities that may not be seen using other methods. Unfortunately, simply because the pattern is called a "continuation pattern" does not mean it is always reliable. A pattern may appear during a trend, but a trend reversal may still occur. It is also quite possible that, once we have drawn the pattern on our charts, the bounds may be slightly penetrated, but a full breakout does not occur. This is called a false breakout and could occur multiple times before the pattern is actually broken and a continuation or a reversal occurs. Rectangles, due to their popularity and easy visibility, are highly susceptible to false breakouts. Patterns can also be subjective, as what one trader sees is not what another trader sees, or how another trader would draw or define the pattern in real time. This is not necessarily a bad thing, as it can provide traders with a unique perspective on the market. It will require time and practice for the trader to develop his or her skill in finding patterns, drawing them and formulating a plan on how to use them. My Observation -: These geometrical patterns are formed after a trend in that particular stock, it generally resumes the previous trend after being out of the pattern but some times it reverses the previous trend hence, it is advised to wait for the conformation to play the pattern. And we can use RSI for conformation i.e. if you are seeing pattern breakout then just check if RSI is greater than 60 and if not than the chances of fakeout is more also in case of breakdown just check if RSI is below 40 else it can reverse. #Enjoy_trading

Spinning Point(Krasnov Model)Namaskar! My name is Michael, today I want to share with you price analysis method which was indentified and first described by high level trader from Russia D.B. Krasnov. This method is used to predict price target zone. If you spend enough time training to indentify Spinning point on chart, you will be able to find quite a lot of them and it will help you to improve your trading level. The best way to confirm Spinning point(when you think you found it), is to explore this place on lower timeframe(M1-3-5). While exploring you should "like" how Spinning point looks. Understanding the logic of formation of Krasnov Model will help you to plan your trading. The idea is quite simple: You need to find, while the wave is rising/falling, somekind of a tested point, which price passes through and then comes back and backtests it and continue to rise/fall, this point presumably should be the middle of the wave(it can be local wave or global one). Bar which is tested from both sides shouldn't be consumed/forced, otherwise Spinning point counts as broken. Usually Spinning point has the lowest horizontal volume(not the volume indicator) in the wave. When Krasnov Model has reached its target, and the price comes back to test it, sometimes we can see resumption of buys/sells. Here are some examples of Spinning point on BTC chart I want to share with you, to make it easier for you to understand what are we looking for. Wish you good trades!

However, a geometrically shaped consolidation does not necessarily mean price reversal. Often price resumes the erstwhile trend post the consolidation move. These are called continuation classical chart pattern. We will discuss about few of the classical chart patterns in the following tutorial. -> Triangles -: Triangles are one of the most well-known chart patterns used in technical analysis. The three most common types of triangles, which vary in construction and implications, are Symmetrical Triangle, Ascending Triangle and Descending Triangle. These chart patterns are considered to last anywhere from a couple of weeks to several months. These are areas of consolidations after a trending move and are generally continuation patterns, i.e. the erstwhile trends resumes after the breakout. However, in certain cases they act as reversal patterns. They can appear both in up-trend and down-trend. -Symmetrical Triangle -: This kind of triangle is formed when the price of the script consolidate in range which is getting narrower with the time, i.e. the sequence of lower highs and higher lows. -Ascending Triangle -: This kind of triangle is formed when the price of the script consolidate in range which lower bound is getting higher with a stiff upper bound, i.e. the sequence of higher lows but almost equal highs. -Descending Triangle -: This kind of triangle is formed when the price of the script consolidate in range which higher bound is getting lower with a stiff bottom bound, i.e. the sequence of lower highs but almost equal lows , it is juxtapose of ascending triangle. -> Flags & Pennants -: These two short-term chart patterns are continuation patterns that are formed when there is a sharp price movement followed by a generally sideways price movement. The patterns are generally thought to last from one to three weeks . They can appear both in up-trend and down-trend. Flag : Pennant: -> Rectangles -: Often there will be pauses in a trend in which the price action moves sideways, bound between parallel support and resistance lines. Rectangles, also known as trading ranges, can last for short periods or many years. This pattern is very common and can be seen often intra-day, as well as on longer-term time frames. ->Mechanism of Continuation Patterns -: Continuation patterns provide some logic to the price action. By knowing the patterns, a trader can create a trading plan to take advantage of common patterns. The patterns present trading opportunities that may not be seen using other methods. Unfortunately, simply because the pattern is called a "continuation pattern" does not mean it is always reliable. A pattern may appear during a trend, but a trend reversal may still occur. It is also quite possible that, once we have drawn the pattern on our charts, the bounds may be slightly penetrated, but a full breakout does not occur. This is called a false breakout and could occur multiple times before the pattern is actually broken and a continuation or a reversal occurs.

In the next publication I'll try to elaborately explain continuation patterns like - head & shoulder, double top & bottom, wedge; Till then, #Enjoy_trading
