Chart Pattern Strategy - Head and Shoulders / Double Top/Bottom
220
Key Chart Patterns for Trading: Head and Shoulders (Reversal Pattern):
Head and Shoulders signals a reversal of an uptrend (bearish) when the price forms a peak (head) with two smaller peaks (shoulders) on either side. Inverse Head and Shoulders signals a reversal of a downtrend (bullish). Double Top / Double Bottom (Reversal Pattern):
Double Top: A bearish reversal pattern where price makes two peaks at roughly the same level, indicating resistance. Double Bottom: A bullish reversal pattern where price forms two troughs at roughly the same level, indicating support. Triangles (Continuation Pattern):
Symmetrical Triangle: A neutral pattern that forms when the price is consolidating. A breakout in either direction (up or down) indicates the direction of the next move. Ascending Triangle: A bullish continuation pattern formed by a horizontal resistance and an upward-sloping support line. Descending Triangle: A bearish continuation pattern formed by a horizontal support and a downward-sloping resistance line. Flags and Pennants (Continuation Pattern):
Flag: A rectangular-shaped pattern that slopes against the prevailing trend. Pennant: A small symmetrical triangle that forms after a sharp price movement (flagpole), typically signaling continuation. Entry and Exit Logic: Entry: A breakout of the defined pattern, either upward (bullish) or downward (bearish), can serve as the entry point. Exit: Target price can be based on the height of the pattern (for example, the distance from the neckline in a head-and-shoulders pattern), or using Risk-to-Reward Ratio (set based on previous patterns' performance).
