Chart Patterns
The larger shapes price draws over days and weeks — and what they tend to resolve into.
Lessons
- How Patterns FormEvery pattern is just memory: prices where crowds previously bought or sold.
- Double Tops & Double BottomsA level tested twice and rejected — one of the cleanest reversal signals.
- Head & ShouldersThe famous topping pattern, its neckline, and the measured move it implies.
- Triangles: Ascending, Descending, SymmetricPrice coiling into a point — a spring that eventually releases. Which way?
- Flags & PennantsBrief pauses inside a strong move — continuation patterns that reward patience.
- Cup & HandleA rounded base with a small dip — a classic launchpad for breakouts.
- When Patterns Fail (and How to Profit)A failed pattern is information too. Failed breakouts often fuel the sharpest moves.
