Chart Analysis and Chart Pattern Recognition – Descending Triangle Pattern

The descending triangle is a variation of a symmetrical triangle formation that has a flat support line and a falling resistance line. The lower highs indicate the decreasing demand and give the descending triangle definitive bearish bias. The descending triangle usually represents a distribution stage in bearish market. The descending triangle is considered as a continuation pattern, especially in a downtrend, but it may also mark a reversal in an uptrend. Volume usually increases on trend support resistance breakout. After breakout (similar to rectangle), support may turn into potential resistance and vice versa.
