📝 What is Ascending & Descending Triangle in Trading?
📐🔺 What is Ascending & Descending Triangle in Trading?
These are like signals 🛎️ from the market, giving hints about where the price may go next!
1️⃣ What is an Ascending Triangle? 🔼
Imagine you are filling water in a bucket 🪣. The water level keeps rising ⬆️, but the lid is tightly closed at the top! This is how the Ascending Triangle works in the stock market.
In this pattern:
✅ The price makes higher and higher lows (bottom price keeps rising like stairs 🪜).
✅ The top price remains flat like a strong wall 🧱 — it can’t break through that resistance easily!
So the price keeps knocking 🚪 on the upper wall again and again… until finally — Boom! 💥 Breakout!
📌 What does this mean?
👉 Most of the time, this pattern hints the price may go UP 📈 after breaking the top wall (resistance).
🌟 Example of Ascending Triangle:
Imagine a balloon 🎈 stuck under a table.
You keep blowing air, air, and more air... the balloon is pressing the table’s bottom harder and harder... finally, POP! — the balloon bursts out from the top.
That’s how an Ascending Triangle breakout feels!
2️⃣ What is a Descending Triangle? 🔽
Now think about the opposite — a tired ball ⚽ rolling on stairs going down...
In this pattern:
✅ The price makes lower and lower highs (like steps going down 🪜).
✅ The bottom price stays flat on the floor (support line) — but for how long?
Slowly the buyers lose strength 😴, the price keeps falling down, and finally… Breakdown! 💥
📌 What does this mean?
👉 Most of the time, this pattern hints the price may go DOWN 📉 after breaking the bottom floor (support).
🌟 Example of Descending Triangle:
Imagine a weak roof slowly collapsing in a house 🏚️... the cracks are showing... finally the roof falls!
That’s how a Descending Triangle breakdown happens.
✨ Easy Tips to Remember
✔️ Ascending Triangle = Like filling air in balloon 🎈 — most likely UPWARD breakout 📈
✔️ Descending Triangle = Like a roof breaking down 🏚️ — most likely DOWNWARD breakout 📉
💡 When to Use These Triangles?
👉 When you see these patterns on stock charts 📊 (don’t worry, no charts here!)
👉 When the price touches lines at least 2-3 times — stronger signals!
👉 When the volume 🔊 supports the breakout/breakdown
❗ Important to Know:
⚠️ Triangles are hints — not guarantees! Sometimes market tricks you (false breakout/fake move 😜) — so be careful!
Always wait for confirmation candle 🕯️ and use stop-loss 🚫 to protect your money!
