Use support & resistance lines or chart patterns like:

Ascending triangle (bullish)

Optional: RSI above 55 or MACD bullish crossover

Short Trade:

Price closes below support

Volume confirms breakdown

RSI below 45 or MACD bearish crossover

💼 Entry Method

🛑 Stop Loss

Below breakout candle’s low (for long)

Above breakdown candle’s high (for short)

🎯 Take Profit (3 Options)

Fixed Target: 2x the range of consolidation zone
