Rising Wedge

The Rising Wedge PatternA rising wedge is a bearish pattern when it appears at the top of a mature uptrend. It signifies that a potential top might be in the offing. The duration (short/medium/long term) of the top depends upon the timeframe on which it appears. Preconditions ------------------ > A strong mature (multi-day/week)trend in the background > Wave HH1 to be extremely smaller than H > HH2 should be smaller than HH1 > HH-HL structure results into a rising wedge or arrowhead > It should appear at the potential top of a rally > Wave LL has to be snappier/abrupt/faster than wave HL & L Volume characteristics ---------------------------- > The volume in HH1 is generally less than volume in wave H > Volume in HH2 is less than volume in HH1 > Volume in wave LL should be higher than volume in wave HL and L Confirmation ----------------- > Wave LL breaks the low of wave HL Psychology -------------- > Weak character of waves HH1 & HH2 with shortening of length and lesser volume means buyers are not interested at these levels > Breakout buyers trapped above H and HH1 > Sharp wave LL with increasing volume suggest that sellers are taking over and a potential medium to long term top may be in place Trading --------- > Book profits full/partial, in any long position, at the break of HL > Risk takers short at the break of HL but risk in may be large as stop loss (above HH2) could be wide > Other may wait for a pullback on the upside (after break of HL); price often reverts back to average prices where short position can be taken > Always try to minimize risk, either by reducing position size or otherwise Do not forget to like/comment/share for more updates in future.

HAL [Weekly] - Looking to breakout or fall?A rising wedge basically signifies a probable end to an uptrend. However, we have been wrong a number of times. But in such irrational and nuclear times a break in trend can signify a massive fall in the price of a stock. Even though this stock looks strong, the monthly timeframe looks extremely weak. Should this weekly support break, we can clearly expect HAL to correct to 1100 to 1150 (currently its strongest line of support). ====== Remember, if the overall market dips, most stocks will also go skinny dipping. Happy Trading!

Nifty-What A Crack 17600 to 17260-What Next ?-Ending Diagonal In old school method or traditional technical analysis pattern which rises & are messy in nature are called “wedge”. In Elliott Wave analysis we call it “Ending diagonal or Type-2 diagonal” which ends the current trend. Both terms imply the same thing – reversal ahead or next. Index has been in uptrend since key support 17260 which was suggested as Part -B plan in the last idea - "Leading Diagonal or Type-1 diagonal" The Sharp Fall from 17600 to 17260 & later bounce upside from 17260 was amazing moves for Index Nifty on Budget Day - 1st Feb 2022 & discussed over the last idea. __________________________ Trading Strategy __________________________ Plan A - Sell Below 17730 / Should fall below 17700 as well for confirmation. Target 1- 17525 Target 2 - 17245 Target 3 - 17075 if fall continues below 17245 ____________________________________________________ Last Idea - Leading Diagonal or Type-1 Diagonal ____________________________________________________
