I've noticed that many beginners in crypto trading focus only on indicators, overlooking what actually works on the charts. We're talking about price patterns in trading, which often provide more reliable signals than a bunch of moving averages.
Let's understand the most important figures. Head and shoulders is a classic that never goes out of style. When you see this formation after an uptrend, the probability of a reversal downward is quite high. Of course, it's not a guarantee, but patterns in trading work based on probabilities.
Then there are double top and double bottom. The first signals weakening buyers and a possible decline, while the second shows support and a potential rise. If you see two identical peaks or troughs, it's a reason to take a closer look.
Flags and pennants are continuation patterns. They form during price consolidation and usually predict the continuation of the main movement. If you catch these moments correctly, you can earn well on impulses.
An important point: patterns in trading work best when you look at volumes and seek confirming signals. Don't trade blindly based on a pattern; always check the market context. I usually wait until the price breaks a level with good volume—that's when I act.
What patterns help you in trading? Write in the comments which figures you catch most often and on which timeframes they work best.
