by Constantino
The recognition of patterns and its body of knowledge of how to react and what to expect helps a trader's success.
Traders are always analysing 'Trends' and 'Reversals.' Their eternal question for traders is 'Can the trend continues?'.
Knowing trends and trend reversals are critical for any trader’s success.
Chart patterns classification of 'Continuous' or 'Reversal' patterns helps
traders to identify specific patterns and expect their outcome from current price action.
Traders move prices between key support and resistance areas (a tug of war) as their perception shifts between optimism and pessimism.
This movement of price adhering to key support and resistance areas create chart patterns.
Reversal patterns exhibit a total shift of trends from bullish to bearish or bearish to bullish in a single pattern structure.
Examples of the reversal patterns are 'Head and Shoulders, Double Tops and Bottoms.
A knowledge of reversal patterns helps traders to estimate the 'end of trends' to execute trades in a timely fashion for maximum gains.
This knowledge also helps traders to time the trades in the opposite direction and to place smaller stop levels.
Here I discuss one of the key reversal patterns ('V Chart Pattern') and present examples of how to trade them.
Please note, all V patterns are classified as a bullish 'V-Bottom' and complimentary
bearish patterns ('V-Top').
V Patterns As the name implies, the 'V' chart patterns have the letter 'V' shape and prices shift their momentum from an aggressive sell-off (Bearish)
to aggressive rally (Bullish) in its structure.
med when its trend is sharply switched from bearish to
bullish (in case of V-Bottom) or bullish (or sideways) to bearish (in case of V-Top patterns).
Trading V-Patterns
The critical aspect of the V pattern is it must have a sharp downtrend followed by a quick and sharp uptrend reversal
