The Chart Patterns section in the Market Core Toolkit offers advanced tools for recognizing and leveraging channels and wedges, two fundamental patterns in technical analysis. Designed to enhance trading precision, this feature helps traders identify trend continuation or reversal opportunities through breakout signals, customizable settings, and adaptive calculations for various market conditions.
The Channels and Breakouts feature helps traders spot price consolidation phases and prepare for potential explosive moves. Channels are drawn automatically by connecting local highs and lows into parallel trendlines, forming a defined trading range.
Ascending Channel: Characterized by higher highs and higher lows, indicating a bullish trend.
Descending Channel: Characterized by lower highs and lower lows, indicating a bearish trend.
Breakouts A breakout occurs when the price moves beyond the established channel boundaries, signaling a potential shift in trend.
Breakout Above Resistance: Suggests a continuation or acceleration of an uptrend.
Breakdown Below Support: Indicates a potential reversal or acceleration of a downtrend
Combining channel analysis with other technical indicators can enhance the reliability of trading signals.
The Wedges feature automatically detects two key chart patterns—Rising Wedge and Falling Wedge—which are commonly used in technical analysis to anticipate potential price reversals or continuations.
Rising Wedge: This pattern forms when price action is confined within two upward-sloping, converging trend lines. It often indicates weakening bullish momentum and is considered a bearish reversal pattern, especially when occurring after an uptrend
Falling Wedge: Characterized by two downward-sloping, converging trend lines, this pattern suggests a potential bullish reversal, particularly when it appears after a downtrend. It reflects diminishing bearish momentum and the possibility of an upward breakout
The pattern is highlighted on the chart with shaded areas and angled support/resistance lines, helping traders quickly identify breakout zones and manage risk effectively.
Identifies the Head and Shoulders pattern, a bearish reversal formation signaling a potential trend change from bullish to bearish.
The pattern consists of three peaks:
Left Shoulder (LS) – A price rise followed by a pullback.
Head – A higher peak forming the highest point of the pattern.
Right Shoulder (RS) – A lower peak, similar to the left shoulder, indicating weakening momentum.
