Introduction

Chart patterns are repeated structures that form because of market price action in trading charts. Just like patterns in nature for example the structure of leaves, the spirals on a tree trunk etc, trading chart patterns are formed because of predictive and repeated human psychology. In certain conditions like greed, fear and hesitations most humans behave in a similar way. And these behaviours become visible in the market through chart patterns. For trading chart patterns the best way is to combine them with key levels like supply and demand , FVG etc. A chart pattern that forms at Supply and demand or FVG zone has higher win probability compared to the one which forms at a random place. Here I am going to cover the 27+ most used chart patterns in trading.

Continuation vs Reversal Chart Patterns

Chart Patterns can be categorized into two distinct categories.

• Continuation chart patterns
• Reversal chart patterns

Continuation Chart Patterns:

A continuation chart pattern enables the price action to continue moving in the same direction after its formation as it was moving before its formation. It shows there is a strong directional momentum. For example in a strong bullish market there is a high likelihood of formation of bullish flag pattern. In the formation of a continuation pattern market pauses for a while and then continues to move in the same direction. It is a strong signal that there is high one sided momentum in the market. In the chart below you can see how a continuation pattern forms in the market and how market behaves after its formation.

Reversal Chart Pattern:

A reversal chart pattern makes the market reverse its direction after its formation i.e if the market was moving in the bullish direction then after the formation of a reversal pattern the market will start to move in the bearish direction. Similarly a reversal pattern in a bearish market will make the market move in the bullish direciton after its formation. The reversal chart patterns signal a shift in market momentum. It shows that the opposing side has finally taken control and is moving the market in their direction. In the chart below you can clearly see how double top pattern (a reversal pattern) changes the market direction from bullish to bearish.

A reversal chart pattern becomes very valuable when it forms at a key level like a supply or demand zone , or a FVG zone. These confluences help us filter out the weak setups.
