Stock Chart Patterns
Technical
Analysis Charting Patterns Explained
What are Stock Chart Patterns
Stock
chart patterns are a
key part of stock market technical analysis charts.
Human nature never
changes and we humans have the same reactions and
responses to stressful situations that our predecessors did.
As a result, price patterns will repeat on the stock charts as the
market goes through its
normal cycles, in good times and in bad. That does not go to say we can
always tell from technical analysis what is going to happen to stock
prices but we can find instances of the same patterns repeating over
and again in the charts.
The analysts task is to identify these stock market charting patterns
in the
early
stages and be able to profit from them as they develop.

Stock Chart Pattern Identification
There are two types of technical
analysis charts patterns, continuation
and reversal.
Recognition of what type of pattern is playing out can
indicate
to the analyst whether to expect a continuation of the trend or a
possible reversal.
A continuation chart
pattern happens in a trending market when the
trend
starts to lose momentum. In a bull market (when the market is rising)
buying pressure starts to weaken but if there are not enough sellers to
reverse the trend. The market may then consolidate in a range
before buyers
regain confidence.
These consolidation periods often create the same continuation patterns
on
the chart that recur again and again.
Exactly the same is true in a bear market (when the market is falling)
except that it is the sellers who run out of steam and there are not
enough
buyers to reverse the trend.
Reversal chart patterns
occur at market tops and bottoms. In
a bull
market (when the market is rising) there will become less buyers as the
trend matures and investors take profits. When the trend stalls as
sellers start to gain confidence and there not enough buyers to get the
momentum going again, eventually the trend reverses.
These battle zones at tops and bottoms often create the recurring reversal patterns
which traders can use as signs of an impending reversal of trend.
Exactly the same is true in a bear market (when the market is
falling)
except it is the sellers who run out of steam and the
buyers that gain control.
