Directional Traders are good at spotting patterns. But 98.8% of the new traders, don't know how to spot patterns. I analyzed @niki_poojary 's account, to learn the most important patterns to master. Here are the 8 of the most important patterns: 🧵
@niki_poojary 1/ Cup and handle Pattern Happens during an uptrend. The cup portion has a U-shaped appearance. The bears are getting weaker as they are unable to drive the prices below the last low. Subhasish Pani uses this a lot in stocks to spot bullish trades.
@niki_poojary 2/ Inverse Cup and Handle Pattern Happens during a downtrend. The cup portion has a reverse U-shaped appearance. The bulls are getting weaker as they are unable to drive the prices above the last high. Subhasish Pani uses this a lot in stocks to spot bearish trades.
@niki_poojary 3/ Double Bottom Pattern It is a bullish pattern that has the shape of a "W". The market tries twice to break the lows but is unsuccessful. This is a reversal pattern to observe during a downtrend for a bullish trade.
@niki_poojary 4/ Double Top Pattern It is a bearish pattern that has the shape of an "M". The market tries twice to break the highs but is unsuccessful. This is a reversal pattern to observe during an uptrend for a bearish trade.
@niki_poojary 5/ Bullish Flag Pattern Happens after a trending move. After constant lower lows in a downward sloping rectangle, the market breaks out. These patterns are very powerful if the down move is still higher than 50% of the distance of the up move.
@niki_poojary 6/ Bearish Flag Pattern Happens after a trending move. After constant higher highs in an uptrend-sloping rectangle, the market breaks down. These patterns are very powerful if the up move is still lower than 50% of the distance of the down move.
@niki_poojary 7/ Head and Shoulders Pattern Signifies a change from a bullish to a bearish trend. The bullish momentum is reducing as bulls are not able to take out their highs with force. Bears are fully in control. We look for a trade below the breakdown of a support in such patterns.
@niki_poojary 8/ Inverse Head and Shoulders Pattern Signifies a change from a bearish to a bullish trend. The bearish momentum is reducing as bears are not able to take out the lows with force. Bulls are fully in control. We trade above the breakout of a resistance in such patterns.
