continuation patterns

In the last lesson we discussed reversal patterns, ie formations of the price action that tend to signal that the trend is about to change, in the current lesson we are to discuss continuation patterns. Continuation patterns usually indicate that the sideways price action on the chart is nothing more than a pause in the prevailing trend, and that the next move will be in the same direction as the trend that preceded the formation. We make a start with triangles The ascending triangle is formed when the price action is condensed between an upward trendline and a resistance line. In such a case the price action seems to be […]

fibonacci retracements

In the last lesson we discussed support and resistance levels and channels. In the current lesson we are to discuss Fibonacci retracement levels. THE FIBONACCI SEQUENCE is a sequence that starts with 0 and 1 and each subsequent number is the sum of the previous two: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89… FIBONACCI RATIOS are found by dividing any number in the sequence by: the number that immediately follows it (61.8%), the number after two places (38.2%) and three places (23.6%), with 50% being another Fibonacci level. In the current lesson we discussed the role and the identification of support and resistance levels, as […]

In the current lesson we are to dwell deeper into these subjects. Support is a level or area on the chart where buying interest is sufficiently strong to overcome selling pressure.
