Decreasing its fluctuations amplitude in most of the case the price breaks out the lower border of a descending triangle that makes a signal to sell.
- The symmetric triangle borders are narrowing towards each other support and resistance levels as a result of fluctuation amplitude decrease inside of the pattern. The breakage of this triangle type is possible in both directions. Though this pattern is considered to be a neutral one it is more likely that the breakage would go the initial trend direction.
- Broadening Triangle is a specular reflection of the symmetrical one. It is formed by separating support and resistance levels.
Despite every triangle has an approximate price movement orientation it happens so that uncertainty resolves the opposite to the expectations way. That’s why it is important to make your decisions after the breakout of any border. Forex forecast.
