Stock Chart Patterns. |
|
The price chart is the result of the activity of all market
participants. It reflects periods of high expectations,
greed and fear. As with most emotional human activities, it
presents different patterns. Chart analysis and pattern recognition provide
useful information for technical analysis, trend analysis, and market
timing signals for technical trading.
Trendlines and chart patterns can be analyzed in different time
frames: from intraday, daily and weekly frames, up to
multi-year patterns. It is the best practice to
analyze patterns in conjunction with other technical
indicators.
Each price pattern is formed by several smaller sub
waves. At least 3 – 4 subwaves are required to perform
a reliable pattern screening. We use a minimal required number of sub
waves for an earlier pattern recognition screener. On the other
hand, a pattern formed with more subwaves is more
reliable.
