Phase 1: Preceding Uptrend

Phase 2: Flag
After the sharp uptrend when supply increases more then the demand prices move to the consolidation phase or flag phase. This acts as a small price channel.
Phase 3: Uptrend Continuation
As the flag is a pause in an uptrend, as prices consolidate investors again start to show interest in the asset which eventually leads to heavy demand again which further leads to a breakout and uptrend continuation.
