Analysis explanation
Triangle
The Triangle is a widely recognised chart pattern defined by two converging trend lines. It can appear in any market context. This chart pattern is very popular among traders. It is easy to detect and appears on the chart quite often. The Triangle is a good pattern for trading because there is always strong movement after it breaks out. Although it is unclear which direction the price will take after the Triangle, it will move strongly if the pattern is broken.
How Triangle works
The three types of Triangle pattern The Triangle pattern indicates an opposition between buyers and sellers. It also displays that market participants are not confident in the price direction and are waiting for some triggers to start trading. Therefore, the Triangle pattern often appears before important news.
Buyers usually place their Stop Loss at the lower side level, while sellers usually place their Stop Loss at the upper side level. If the price breaks out from the Triangle in any direction, all placed orders will be triggered, and this trigger will cause the pattern's strong movement.
ldentifying Triangle
A Triangle pattern can emerge in any context, regardless of the preceding trend direction. There are three types of the Triangle pattern
-The Symmetrical Triangle consists of two equally-sloped convergence trend lines. Its body has a horizontal direction. It is the most common type.
-The Ascending Triangle consists of a horizontal upper trend line and a rising lower trend line.
-The Descending Triangle has a horizontal lower trend line and a falling upper trend line.
Unfortunately, the pattern does not give an understanding of the price movement direction, but it is good for trading after breakout confirmation towards the breakout direction.
