Let's walk through the most common patterns used in TA...🧵👇
Falling wedges break out upward more often.
Rising wedges usually break downward.
Rectangle - more often it's a continuation than a reversal pattern.
Flags - frequent pattern with fairly reliable outcomes and a very low failure rate.
Pennants - almost always breakout in the same direction as the steep trend with few failures.
Cup & Handle - traditionally a bottoming pattern but can also be a continuation pattern. The continuation variety is typically a lot more reliable and profitable.
Head & Shoulders - usually gives failed breakouts and false signals when occuring within consolidation periods.
Descending Triangles - declining volume during formation adds to the performance on downward breakouts.
Ascending Triangles - price action within the formation is erratic and early fakeouts are common.
Symmetrical Triangles - performance is average for classic patterns, but increasing breakout volume adds a significant improvement.
Triple Top & Bottom - cofirmation is given by price breaking below the two bottoms (or tops in the case of a triple bottom)
Broadening Pattern - the breakout lines are in constant motion as the pattern develops, which makes them difficult to identify.
Broadening Wedge - more than 75% of the time, the breakout occurs in the direction from where price enters the formation.
