Best Chart Patterns in Price Action for Intraday & Swing Trading Last year I shared more than 1000 free swing and intraday trading signals for Forex, Gold, Silver, Oil, Crypto and Major Indexes. The majority of the setups were based on classic price action chart patterns. What I did through the trading year, I kept a record of each free signal that I posted: noting the winners, losers and the entry reason. In this article, I will share with you the most accurate and profitable patterns for trading by accuracy and winning rate. First, let me reveal the list of chart patterns that I traded this year: double top & double bottom, head & shoulders pattern, cup & handle, bullish and bearish flag, rising and falling wedge, horizontal channel, ascending, descending and symmetrical triangles. And I did not trade every pattern that I spotted. There were some specific criteria that I relied on to confirm the validity of the patterns. Keep reading and you will learn these criteria. Secondly, you can back test the performance of a trading setup and of each pattern that I shared on my official tradingview page by your own. Simply, use the filter to display the desired pattern. Tradingview does not allow removing the trading signal once it is posted, so all the results are 100% real. My TradingView Page - www.tradingview.com Thirdly, all the chart patterns that I trade strictly formed on key daily supports and resistances . I never trade the patterns beyond key levels. For example, the triangle chart pattern on an hourly time frame on EURAUD that I posted recently was formed on a key daily horizontal resistance. Please, note that the price action patterns alone that are formed far from strong supports and resistances will always have a lower winning rate. Also, I applied the chart patterns primarily for day trading and swing trading. The time frames that I used were daily/4h/1h. For scalping, the performance will be different. And the last thing that patterns in chart patterns trading is the direction of the market trend. The price action pattern that indicates a price movement against the trend will always have a lower accuracy than the one the aligns with the trend and give a trend following signal. In the trading setup above, I spotted not only a bullish price action pattern on an hourly time frame but also a strong bullish trend on a daily. Following all these criteria, here are the winning rates of chart patterns that I traded this year. Double top & double bottom pattern get 66% winning rate. That's the example of a perfect double bottom chart pattern for trading. Remember that the fact that the price formed a pattern does not provide a reliable signal, we trade only after a breakout of its neckline and a candle close beyond, that is our strong confirmation. Head & shoulders pattern and its inverted version get 69% winning rate. You can find a valid head and shoulders pattern above. It was formed on a key daily resistance, and the trade was opened strictly after a violation of the neckline. Cup & handle pattern and its inverted version has 67% accuracy this year. That's a very perfect cup and handle that the price formed on a key support. Confirmation is the violation of the horizontal neckline. Bullish and bearish flags get 62% accuracy. Examine the perfect flag pattern on USDJPY. The market is bullish on a daily and trades within a rising channel. The price formed a bullish flag on an hourly, approaching its support. Our signal to buy is the violation of its upper trend line. Rising and falling wedges get 64% accuracy. The rising wedge that the price formed on the chart above perfectly aligns with the up trend on a daily. Horizontal channel - the range achieves 68% winning rate. The horizontal range that the price formed after a breakout of a key daily support and its consequent test was broken to the downside, giving a reliable intraday confirmation signal. The accuracy of ascending and descending triangles gave correct signals in 67% of the trades. We made a nice profit, buying Bitcoin after a breakout of a neckline of the ascending triangle pattern that was formed on a retest recently broken daily resistance that turned into support. Symmetrical triangle got 61% winning chance. The violation of a falling trend line of a symmetrical triangle after a test of a key daily support gave a strong intraday bullish signal. The best and the most accurate trading setups were based on a combination of multiple patterns. It is a situation, when the market forms 2 or even more the-same biased patterns. The trading setup above combines 2 bearish price action patterns on a key daily resistance: rising wedge pattern and descending triangle. Breakouts the trend line and neckline of both patterns gave very accurate bearish signal. Such setups have a winning chance above 70%. The one setup that gave almost 83% winning rate this year was based on a combination of a falling wedge pattern and a cup & handle pattern within. In that setup, you can find not only a falling wedge pattern and its resistance breakout but also a cup & handle pattern that formed within and its neckline violation as well. Always record the results and the entry criteria of your trades. It will help you to identify the most efficient entry signals and the worst ones. I hope that my observations will help you in the next trading year. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️

7 Best Chart Patterns For Trading Forex and Gold If you are studying chart parts, I prepared for you the list of 7 price action patterns you should never miss. In this article, I will share with you powerful chart patterns for trading forex or any other financial market. These patters work perfectly for day trading, swing trading and scalping. We will study real market examples. I will explain the psychology and meaning of each pattern and explain to you how to trade them. The first chart pattern that we will discuss is double top. The pattern is formed on the edge of a bullish impulse. It is based on 2 equal highs and a higher low between them. A higher low composes a minor support. A strong bearish signal is a breakout of a neckline and a candle close below that. Entry is on its retest. Stop loss is above the highs. Target is the closest strong support. The bullish version of a double top pattern is called double bottom The pattern is formed on the edge of a bearish impulse. It is based on 2 equal lows and a lower high between them. A lower high composes a minor resistance. A strong bullish signal is a breakout of a neckline and a candle close above that. Entry is on its retest. Stop loss is below the lows. Target is the closest strong resistance. The second powerful pattern is a descending triangle formation. The pattern is formed on the edge of a bullish impulse. It is based on at least 2 equal lows and 3 lower highs between them. A falling trend line should respect the lower highs. A strong bearish signal is a breakout of a neckline and a candle close below that. Entry is on its retest. Stop loss is above the highest high. Target is the closest strong support. A bullish variation of a triangle pattern is called an ascending triangle. The pattern is formed on the edge of a bearish impulse. It is based on at least 2 equal highs and 3 higher lows between them. A rising trend line should respect the higher lows. A strong bullish signal is a breakout of a neckline and a candle close above that. Entry is on its retest. Stop loss is below the lowest low. Target is the closest strong resistance. Chart pattern number 5 - Cup & Handle pattern. Cup & handle pattern is the variation of a double bottom. The only difference between 2 patterns is 1 lower low and a consequent higher low, instead of 2 equal lows. Entry trigger and trade execution rules are absolutely the same as with a double bottom. Stop loss is strictly below the lower low. A bearish version of a cup & handle is called an inverted cup & handle. Inverted cup & handle pattern is the variation of a double top. The only difference between 2 patterns is 1 higher high and a consequent lower high, instead of 2 equal highs. Entry trigger and trade execution rules are absolutely the same as with a double top. Stop loss is strictly above the higher high. The last and the most powerful chart pattern is the range . Range is a strictly horizontal parallel channel where the price sets equal highs and equal lows, respecting the support and the resistance of the range. This chart pattern signifies that the market found equilibrium, a fair value. A strong bullish signal is a breakout of a resistance of the range and a candle close above that. Target will be the next strong resistance, stop loss should lie below the lows of the range. A strong bearish signal is a breakout of a support of the range and a candle close below that. Target will be the next strong support, stop loss should lie above the highs of the range. Of course, there are more patterns to study but these 7 are essential . Your ability to recognize them is the key for accurate price action trading. Learn to spot these patterns and good luck in your trading.. Let me know which patterns do you want to study in the next article. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️

Learn Best Price Action Patterns by Accuracy Last year, I shared more than 1300 free signals and forecasts for Gold, Forex, Commodities and Indexes. In my predictions, quite often I relied on classic price action patterns. In this article, I will reveal the win rate of each pattern, the most accurate and the least accurate formations of the last year. Please, note that all the predictions and forecasts that I shared this year are available on TradingView and you can back test any of the setup that I identified this year by your own. Just choose a relevant tag on my TradingView page. Also, some forecasts & signals were based on a combination of multiple patterns. Here is the list of the patterns that I personally trade: 🔘 Double Top or Bottom with Equal Highs The pattern is considered to be valid when the highs or lows of the pattern are equal. The pattern gives a bearish/bullish signal when its neckline is broken. 🔘 Double Top or Bottom with Lower High/Higher Low or Cup & Handle The pattern is considered to be valid when the second top/bottom of the patterns is lower/higher than the first one. The pattern gives a bearish/bullish signal when its neckline is broken. 🔘 Head & Shoulders and Inverted Head and Shoulders The pattern gives a bearish/bullish signal when its neckline is broken. 🔘 Horizontal Range The pattern is the extension of a classic double top/bottom with at least 3 equal highs/lows. The pattern gives a bearish/bullish signal when its neckline is broken. 🔘 Bullish/Bearish Flag The pattern represents a rising/falling parallel channel. It gives a bullish/bearish signal when its upper/lower boundary is broken. 🔘 Rising/Falling Wedge Pattern The pattern represents a contracting rising/falling channel. It gives a bullish/bearish signal when its upper/lower boundary is broken. 🔘 Rising/Falling Expanding Wedge The pattern represents an expanding rising/falling channel. It gives a bullish/bearish signal when its upper/lower boundary is broken. 🔘 Descending/Ascending Triangle The pattern is the extension of a cup & handle pattern with at least 2 lower highs/lows. The pattern gives a bearish/bullish signal when its neckline is broken. Please, also note that all the patterns that I identified and traded were formed on key horizontal or vertical structures. Remember that the accuracy of any pattern drops dramatically if it is formed beyond key levels. I consider the pattern to be a winning one if after a neckline breakout, it managed to reach the closest horizontal or vertical structure, not invalidating the pattern's highs/lows. For example, if the price violated the high of the cup and handle pattern after its neckline breakout, such a pattern is losing one. If it reached the closest structure without violation of the high, it is a winning pattern. 🔍 Double Top or Bottom with Equal Highs I spotted 85 setups featuring these patterns. Their accuracy is 62%. 🥉 Double Top or Bottom with Lower High/Higher Low or Cup & Handle 96 setups were spotted. The performance turned out to be a little bit higher than a classic double top/bottom with 65% of the setups hitting the target. 🔍 Head & Shoulders and Inverted Head and Shoulders 58 formations spotted this year. Average win rate is 64% 🏆 Horizontal Range The most accurate pattern of this year. More than 148 patterns were spotted and 74% among them gave accurate signal. 🔍 Bullish/Bearish Flag 38 setups identified this year. The accuracy of the pattern is 57% Rising/Falling Wedge The pattern turned out to be a little bit more accurate. Among 62 formations, 59% end up being profitable. 👎 Rising/Falling Expanding Wedge The worst pattern of this year. I recognized 24 patterns and their accuracy was just 51%. 🥈 Descending/Ascending Triangle 64 patterns were identified. The win rate of the pattern is 66%. The most important conclusion that we can make analyzing the performance of these patterns is that they all have an accuracy above 50%. If you properly combine these patterns with some other technical or fundamental tools, the accuracy of the setup will increase dramatically. Good luck in your trading! ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️

Cup and Handle Trading Guide ☕️ The cup and handle pattern is a continuation chart pattern that looks like cup and handle with a defined resistance level at the top of the cup. It forms from a strong drive up that pulled back and consolidated over a period of time creating the cup before making another push to the resistance where it pulls back again but not as far creating the handle and then makes it final push past the resistance level and continuing on the trend. How To Trade A Cup and Handle Pattern To trade using a cup and handle strategy, place your stop buy order a little higher than the handle’s upper trend line. Your order will only execute if the price breaks through the pattern’s resistance. As an alternative you can wait for the price to close higher than the handle’s upper trend line, and then place a limit buy order a little bit lower than the breakout level for the pattern, which will execute if the price retraces. However, you will face the risk of missing the trade if the price fails to pullback and continues to advance uninterrupted. 💫Useful tips: The ideal cup pattern should not be too deep. Avoid patterns with handles that are too deep as well, since the handles should be forming somewhere in the cup pattern’s top half. The volume should be decreasing as the price declines, and then stay lower than the average seen in the base of the cup. The price should increase as the security starts to move higher toward the previous high. The retest at the end of the cup pattern does not need to directly reach the previous high, but the further the top of the handle is from the old high, the less significant the breakout from the handle’s bottom may be.

Learn The Most Accurate Price Action Pattern Hey traders, We must admit that it is phenomenally difficult to become a consistently profitable trader. This journey requires years of practicing and training, constant losses, and nervous breakdowns. If you are a struggling trader, if you are still looking for your way to succeed in this game, here is the formula that will help you to chase consistent profits. 💰Consistent profits = 📝Trading Strategy + 🤬Emotions + 📈Market Sentiment Let's discuss each element separately. 📝Trading Strategy: To be in profit in a long run requires an understanding of what do you actually trade. You must have strict and objective entry conditions. You must rely on the objective & verifiable rules for the execution of market analysis. You must have a plan to follow. A plan that is backtested and proved its efficiency. 🤬Emotions: Even the best trading plan, the most accurate trading strategy can be easily beaten by emotions. Emotional decisions such as revenge trading and early position close can easily blow the account of any size in a blink of an eye. The most disappointing thing to note right here is the fact that you can be taught how to execute technical analysis but you can not be taught to control your emotions. Your main enemy here is yourself and being in a constant battle with your greed and fear it is very easy to go broke. Only by being humble, disciplined and patient, you can successfully apply a trading strategy. 📈Market Sentiment: Mastering your emotions and having studied a trading strategy, it looks like it is finally the time to make money. However, occasionally the market tends to be irrational. Being chaotic and unpredictable, sometimes the market neglects every technical and fundamental rule. Crisis, euphoria: the reasons can be different. The fact is that such things happen. And it is your duty to learn to deal with unfavorable market conditions. 💰To become a consistently profitable trader, you must become the master of these three elements. Only then the doors to freedom and independence will be opened to you. Let me know, traders, what do you want to learn in the next educational post?

Learn The Most Accurate Price Action Pattern Hey traders, If you are learning price action trading, you definitely must know a double bottom pattern. Double bottom is a reversal pattern. It is applied to spot early market reversal clues and catch the initiation of a new bullish trend . Preconditions for a double bottom: 1️⃣ The market must trade in a bearish trend . 2️⃣ After a formation of the last lower high, the price must set equal low. 3️⃣ The price must return back to the last lower high level. ✅Once these conditions are met the pattern is considered to be completed. The formation of the pattern is considered to be a ⚠️WARNING sign. Even though many traders buy the pattern once it is completed, for me it is not enough. ❗️Remember that the price can easily start to consolidate and form a horizontal channel for example. The trigger that we will look for is the breakout (candle close above) the last lower high level (based on a wick and its highest candle close) - the neckline. Being broken to the upside, the market sets a new higher high. It signifies a violation of a current bearish trend . ⬆️Attempting to catch an initiation of a bullish trend , we will buy the market with a buy limit order on a retest of a broken neckline. ❌Safest stop will lie below the lows of the pattern. 💰Your reward must be at least 1.5 of your risk. Following these simple rules, you will be impressed by how accurate this pattern is! Let me know, traders, what do you want to learn in the next educational post?
