Fancy watching a video explanation rather than reading?😀

Watch this video where I explain all of the 'Top Reversal formations'!👀

If not, read on!📚

2.1 -> Failure Swing Reversal

- Price needs to make a high

- followed by a 2nd high which should be a lower high

- Price should now break the Swing Low between these two highs thus generating a Sell signal & signalling the end of a long term uptrend

2.2 -> Non-failure Swing Reversal

- Price makes a high & then a higher high
- Price should now break the previous swing low, creates a lower low
- Price rises again but fails to cross the previous higher high, creates a lower high
- Price breaks the lower low to generate a sell

2.3 -> Double top Reversal

- Price makes a two similar highs
- Price should now break the swing low between the highs thus generating a sell signal

Depending on the position size in the trade, one can wait for a close or sell immediately when price crosses swing low

3 -> How to identify the end of a downtrend?

Again, there are 3⃣ types of reversal formations that signal a trend change from down to uptrend

✅ Failure Swing
✅ Non-Failure Swing
✅ Double Top sell
