If you trade or invest, knowing chart patterns helps you guess where prices might go next!
There are 3 main types of patterns:
๐ Reversal Patterns โ Trend Might Flip!
These show that the price may go in the opposite direction than before.
1. Double Top โ Price hits the same high twice, then falls. ๐ป
2. Head & Shoulders โ Three peaks, middle one is the highest. If it drops below the "neck," trend reverses. โ ๏ธ
3. Rising Wedge โ Price goes up but in a tight range, then breaks downward. ๐
4. Double Bottom โ Price hits same low twice, then goes up. ๐ผ
5. Inverse Head & Shoulders โ Three dips, with the middle one deeper. If it breaks above neckline, itโs bullish. ๐ข
6. Falling Wedge โ Price goes down in a tight range, then breaks upward. ๐
