Learn What is PULLBACK and WHY It is Important For TRADING In the today's post, we will discuss the essential element of price action trading - a pullback. There are two types of a price action leg of a move: impulse leg and pullback. Impulse leg is a strong bullish/bearish movement that determines the market sentiment and trend. A pullback is the movement WITHIN the impulse. The impulse leg has the level of its high and the level of its low. If the impulse leg is bearish , a pullback initiates from its low and should complete strictly BELOW its high. If the impulse leg is bullish , a pullback movement starts from its high and should end ABOVE its low. Simply put, a pullback is a correctional movement within the impulse. It occurs when the market becomes overbought/oversold after a strong movement in a bullish/bearish trend. Here is the example of pullback on EURJPY pair. The market is trading in a strong bullish trend. After a completion of each bullish impulse, the market retraces and completes the correctional movements strictly within the ranges of the impulses. Here are 3 main reasons why pullbacks are important: 1. Trend confirmation If the price keeps forming pullbacks after bullish impulses, it confirms that the market is in a bullish bearish trend. While, a formation of pullbacks after bearish legs confirms that the market is trading in a downtrend. Here is the example how bearish impulses and pullbacks confirm a healthy bearish trend on WTI Crude Oil. 2. Entry points Pullbacks provide safe entry points for perfect trend-following opportunities. Traders can look for pullbacks to key support/resistances, trend lines, moving averages or Fibonacci levels, etc. for shorting/buying the market. Take a look how a simple rising trend line could be applied for trend-following trading on EURNZD. 3. Risk management By waiting for a pullback, traders can get better reward to risk ratio for their trades as they can set tighter stop loss and bigger take profit. Take a look at these 2 trades on Bitcoin. On the left, a trader took a trade immediately after a breakout, while on the right, one opened a trade on a pullback. Patience gave a pullback trader much better reward to risk ratio with the same target and take profit level as a breakout trader. Pullback is a temporary correction that often occurs after a significant movement. Remember that pullbacks do not guarantee the trend continuation and can easily turn into reversal moves. However, a combination of pullback and other technical tools and techniques can provide great trading opportunities. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

The pattern that we will discuss is a reversal pattern. Depending on the shape of the pattern, it can be applied to predict a bearish or a bullish reversal. Its bearish variation has a very particular shape. It has 4 essential elements that make this pattern so unique: A strong bullish impulse, A pullback and a formation of a higher low, One more bullish impulse with a formation of an equal high, A pullback to the level of the last higher low. Such a pattern will be called a double top pattern. 2 equal highs will be called the tops , the level of the higher low will be called a neckline . Remember that the formation of a double top pattern is not a signal to sell. It is a warning sign. The pattern by itself simply signifies a consolidation and local market equilibrium. Your confirmation will be a breakout of the neckline of the pattern. Its violation is an important sign of strength of the sellers and increases the probabilities that the market will drop. Once you spotted a breakout of a neckline of a double top pattern, the best and the safest entry will be on a retest of a broken neckline. Target level will be based on the closest support. Stop loss will lie above the tops. A bullish variation of a double top pattern is called a double bottom. It is also based on 4 main elements: A strong bearish impulse, A pullback and a formation of a lower high, One more bearish impulse with a formation of an equal low, A pullback to the level of the last lower high. 2 equal lows will be called the bottoms , the level of the lower high will be called a neckline . The formation of a double bottom pattern is not a signal to buy. It is a warning sign. The pattern by itself simply signifies a consolidation and local market equilibrium. Your confirmation will be a breakout of the neckline of the pattern. Once you spotted a breakout of a neckline of a double bottom pattern, the best and the safest entry will be on a retest of a broken neckline. Target level will be based on the closest resistance. Stop loss will lie below the bottoms. Double top & bottom is a classic price action pattern that everyone knows. Being very simple to recognize, its neckline violation provides a very accurate trading signal. Moreover, once you learn to recognize and trade this pattern, it will be very easy for you to master more advanced price action patterns like head and shoulders or triangle. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️
