Ascending Triangle Chart Pattern (Trading Strategy)

Here’s the deal:
I’m not a chart pattern trader.
However…
The Ascending Triangle chart pattern is one of the few patterns I trade.
Why?
Because when other traders get stopped out, they help “push” the market further in your favor.
In short, you EXPLOIT the stop-loss orders of losing traders - and that’s why it works.
And because this is so powerful, I’ve created a new trading video on Ascending Triangle chart pattern.
You’ll learn:
•What is an Ascending Triangle chart pattern and why does it work
•You should always go short when the price is at Resistance, right? Wrong! I’ll explain why…
•How to better time your entries & exits when trading the Ascending Triangle
•When is the best time to trade Ascending Triangle (and why)
•How to find high probability breakout trades with the Ascending Triangle chart pattern
You ready to learn this powerful chart pattern?
Then go watch this video right now.

Your videos are exactly what I've been looking for. I've already learned about chart pattern but the fact that you explain the DYNAMICS of how patterns are formed and why they work is phenomenal.

[@CentsTwo]

Yeah and the examples are great too, though it would be better to have more for practice. I found the book Realistic Stock Trading Analysis: Ascending Triangles Explained Using Real Chart Examples to provide a good practice resource since it has many chart examples.

[@notredox2]

This was great, I have been researching "how do you know when forex is reversed?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you heard people talk about - Banackenzie Aristocratic Builder - (do a search on google ) ? It is a smashing exclusive product for discovering how to conquer options trading minus the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my work buddy got cool results with it.

[@anyelberrodriguez9633]

Cheers for this, I been tryin to find out about "what are higher highs and higher lows?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Banackenzie Aristocratic Builder - (do a google search ) ? It is an awesome exclusive guide for discovering how to conquer options trading without the hard work. Ive heard some decent things about it and my cousin got cool results with it.

[@CentsTwo]

Good explanation and a good few examples. I also found the book Realistic Stock Trading Analysis: Ascending Triangles Explained Using Real Chart Examples to be very helpful too since it shows a bunch of scenarios with lots of charts that show what happens before the triangle forms and what happens during and after it forms. Its good practice for spotting and deciding on the pattern.

[@dharmendrauniyal6786]

thanks bro

[@pratikprajapati716]

Great !

[@braileanul]

just a small observation. for SL you take the swing low in triangle, add the buffer and now you have a SL as high as the triangle at base then when you talk of tp the range is the base of triangle my question is : why triangles are your fav pattern to trade when in theory you have at best 1:1 R R ratio

[@maxfarias3099]

good video

[@deepsanghvi9240]

Hi Rayner. Can you please make a video on Wolfe Wave. Because I have been hearing that it is not even system. Lots of confusion out there. I want to know the truth so I can make decisions whether I should adapt that system or not. I am not getting clearer picture. Need your advice 🙏

[@captainwalker]

Ascending triangles are part of a group of patterns where price is contracting into a tight space. Some people call them wedges and all different kinds of names. The reality is that an ascending contracting pattern in a bull market has a higher probability of breakout for the north. But an ascending contracting pattern in a bear market has a greater probability for break down to the south. However there are other variables to consider e.g. movement into horizontal or oblique resistance/support and RSI levels in deep trenches or peaks. In general reversals tend to happen between 2/3 and 3/4 of the distance of the contracting triangle or wedge. After that sort of distance the pattern may not be in a high probability of reversal. There is no 'law' on this. It's all probabilistic and the reversal of price in contracting patterns depend much on other variables.

[@BreathEasy112]

Russell Lutchman This was so needed

[@todaymakeithappen9215]

Rayner---I like your teaching style... and thank you for your work.... question on allowing your "winners to run" easier said than done---I have the tendency to flinch with every new move that goes against my original trade... how do I change this,,is there a better indicator I can be viewing that will give me the comfort to hold with confidence and sit tight? Also can you create a video on "re entering" the market too prematurely after exiting your position---I tend to rush back in.. isn't serving me well THX!

[@CentsTwo]

Ah that's a problem for all traders even experts have it but they can manage it and keep the doubt almost silent. Its more of a discipline thing and indicators may only help a little or just be a placebo effect. Nerves and discipline nothing else. Just develop a probability based mindset that helps a lot. Also the more practice and exposure you have the better to develop those habits. The book Realistic Stock Trading Analysis: Ascending Triangles Explained Using Real Chart Examples could help you for this pattern since it can be used for practicing with charts without risking real money. You can use it to develop the skill to sit tight or exit/enter in a bunch of scenarios.

[@denniscarino4033]

Hey rayner Can u make a video about momentum by using a rsi...,?

[@openforumtalk6159]

Thanks for the great explanation. What should be the time frame(5min, 10min, 15min, 30min, 1h.....) for analysing this pattern?

[@CentsTwo]

It's a chart pattern so theoretically it should work on all charts in all markets on all timeframes. Though it is usually better to trade 15min or higher in the intra day timeframe since its more stable and generally more people refer to them. The daily timeframe is even more reliable since closing prices are more closely watched by the overall market. The book Realistic Stock Trading Analysis: Ascending Triangles Explained Using Real Chart Examples is a great resource if you want even more examples for practice. This video was good but learners need more practice and exposure to get the hang of spotting triangles and deciding what they would do in that scenario.

[@maranathah]

please you talked about use trading books, could you recommend nice trading books i could use to enhance my knowledge

[@charlesso1060]

Hi Rayner. I've learned a lot from your lessons. does your price action/trend following strategy look at the volume? or is it pure price action? thanks

[@CentsTwo]

His examples were mainly forex examples. Currency charts don't have volume. I forgot why but it has something to do with banks not wanting people to know how much currency is being traded, for maintaining stable markets. I don't know if that's true or not, that topic is rarely covered. Volume is more with the stock market. The book Realistic Stock Trading Analysis: Ascending Triangles Explained Using Real Chart Examples has lots of charts with different volume and price action scenarios, which I think is what you are looking for.

[@zryaevecasillian5483]

This one decision i made, learning the Blended Model strategy was a Choice to get better in my trading life. You will never regret choosing to get better when you make the right choice. And choosing to get better always leads to happiness, Learning from experiences using this strategy was a choice that made me better, is the ideal way to have assurance that my future became better than the past. If you are still struggling to make money trading the financial markets, and you still hesitate to get this knowledgeable method of Dmitry Vladislav, reading he's ebook and learning blended model strategy, then you are still unable to take that decision.

[@evetteburgin5871]

I've seen where there was a descending triangle in an uptrend. I didn't know whether to trade with the trend or trust that the sellers where in control.

"5 seconds. 1, 2, 5"

[@murshidvp7659]

Hi, Which time frame is better for drawing these kind of patterns

[@chamberlainsexquisiteobjec2541]

hi Rayner !! I've been trading since august last year , I just had a question about success , I've been using your strategy of the crossover of the 200 moving average and I've been getting slow success , my question is how long did it take for you to quite your day job from the the time you realized you knew what you were doing to success ? my initial investment was 10k so how long do I have use the strategy with proper risk management to ' not worry about the future ' not millionaire but a steady road .

[@rickyrozay6112]

im very interested how you doing now?

[@user-et1mp1tu7w]

What trading software do you use?

[@yozukah]

how do you mange to trigger a stop loss at a choosen MA automaticaly?

[@faisalali052]

Sir which time frame is best to find patterns

[@yozukah]

ins't the RR in these setups mostly kind of low? as the SL is quite far away from entry. to get a good RR we need a high target. i often struggle to trade a setup when i see the SL like 10% or more away from my entry and consider it not to be worth to trade. but i am not experienced and have a lack of feeling for what is a good setup according to RR. you could take a lower position size then to minimize the risk but in the same move you lower your profit al well ...

[@ejali7708]

Nice nice

[@jacobfitz6872]

What if there is an ascending triangle in a descending trend??

[@ChamandyBeats]

Can you do the descending triangle as well please?

[@tradingwithrayner]

The concept is just the opposite of ascending triangle

[@kishorkumar-nn8cf]

How to find this types of chart pattern ..?

[@rav6274]

What do you mean by 'shocking' the market, will you elaborate please.

[@Pozzaa90]

I guess it's a strange pronunciation of the word "shorting"

[@mg9123]

What does ”give it some buffer” mean?

[@rahuldhiman144]

How do this guy prepares these videos.. powerpoint?? Or paint?? Or what..???

[@prkshtbdk2]

PRICE ACTION U SAID IN VIDEO THAT PDF ISN'T THERE?

[@clementsarpong7029]

Where is the link of your book

[@chethanbangera8494]

Hello ,, My question is what to do when descending order comes in uptrend..

[@truthseeker9639]

you don't trade it

[@funday5788]

Great one suggestion please don't erase pen work while proceeding

[@rajs4283]

Can you make live demo to be useful

[@wigginsryan0]

Dude why wouldnt you do ascending triangles first then descending second. You got me mixing my notes all up.

[@hassanasam2442]

Can you tell when ascending triangle breakout fails

[@MoonlightLobster]

When its a circle

[@Pozzaa90]

It's hilarious. I've just watched a video saying that ascending triangles are a shorting signal... Go figure XD

[@funtoosjokes9373]

Yup. U r right. I m using this price action pattern from last 6 years for reversal only. My Win %age is awesome.

[@j.d.4697]

Pretty sure it's a bullish signal, but if you can spot failing uptrend breakouts I'm sure you can use it for shorting.

[@Sam_unleashed]

What if a descending triangle form in an uptrend

[@TraVeller1530]

Stay safe from Corona and pray for each and everyone .

[@SMT1998]

I thought you were Adam Khoo at first. Your voices are too similar haha

[@ABLobos]

😍

[@muditdixit8695]

Notes: Trade when resistance is broken SL is height of triangle Combine candlesticks short trade 20 DMA, Medium term 50dma; Target same as height of triangle use Moving averages to exit trade.

[@nkhensanimbombi4798]

Bro ..what about a descending triangle in a uptrend
