1. Ascending Triangle
Is one of the most common patterns, seen when a specific coin or stock hold the same levels of highs, acting as a resistance, and providing higher lows by time, the coin will most probably break out of the triangle in an upward direction.

3. Symmetrical Triangle
Provides lower highs, and higher lows until breaking upward.
4. Pennants and Flags
This pattern is identified during a specific trend, first you need to identify the trend. Also considered as a mild correction before continuation of a trend, but acting in a parallel channel.
5. Wedges
Wedges are commonly seen, an ascending wedge provides higher highs and mild higher lows, and will lead to a breakout to the downside. Meanwhile the descending wedge commonly finishes with a breakout to the upside.
6. Tops and Bottoms
Tops will be considered as a strong resistance area tested for more than once, leading to the retracement of the price to previous lows. Bottoms are strong support areas tested and will lead to a new pump. Bottoms can be considered as a good entry for longs depending on the general trend.
7. Head and Shoulders
This pattern is one of the most patterns commonly seen. To be able to identify H&S Pattern, we recommend observing the chart on 1hour and 4hrs timeframe.
