You are looking for complex strategies while the market gives out money in a simple scenario. The triangle is not a 'simple pattern'. It is a liquidity trap after which the price takes a sharp breath in one direction. And you might be inside this movement.
THE SECRET IS NOT IN THE SHAPE, BUT IN THE TENSION.
The price does not move chaotically. It compresses like a spring. The tighter the spring is compressed (the narrower the triangle), the stronger the shot. Your task is not to predict the direction, but to see the moment before the release.
3 TYPES OF TRIANGLES THAT PROVIDE DIFFERENT CLUES:
1. 🔻 SYMMETRICAL: The market's "coin." Balance of power. Bulls and bears in a standoff. Key: Entry ONLY after the candle breaks the closing price beyond the line. Look for VOLUME SUPPORT on the breakout — this is the main signal.
2. 🔺 ASCENDING: Bullish conspiracy. Lows are rising. Buyers become more aggressive with each wave. Resistance is a thin paper that is about to tear. Key: Breakout upwards — often a matter of time. The lowest risk entry is on a bounce from the rising support line.
3. 🔻 DESCENDING: Bear trap. Highs are decreasing. Sellers methodically sell every bounce. Support is under pressure. Key: Most often breaks downward. If the price tests a horizontal low more than 3 times — get ready to sell.
✅ YOUR CLEAR ACTION PLAN:
STEP 1: WAIT FOR FORMATION. You need at least 4 touch points (2 upper, 2 lower). Without this — it is not a triangle, but noise.
STEP 2: DEFINE THE KEY LINE. Which boundary (upper or lower) is horizontal? It is the priority target for the breakout.
STEP 3: ENTRY ON BREAKOUT WITH CONFIRMATION. Wait for the candle to CLOSE beyond the triangle line. Your order is on a retest of this line. DO NOT CHASE THE BREAKOUT!
STEP 4: STOP AND TAKE ON AUTOPILOT.
Stop: inside the triangle, behind the opposite line of the pattern.
Target (take-profit): at least the height of the figure's base, offset from the breakout point.
❌ WHY HAVEN'T YOU MADE MONEY ON THIS YET?
You enter before the breakout, trying to guess the direction. You set the take at halfway to the target out of greed or fear. You ignore volume. Volume on the breakout is your only confirmation. No volume — no trust in the movement.
👉 CHECKING IN PRACTICE
Look at your chart RIGHT NOW (BTCUSDT, ETHUSDT, or any asset).
And respond in the comments:
1. Do you see a forming triangle on H1 or H4? If yes — send a screenshot or describe it verbally.
2. What type do you think? (Symmetrical/Ascending/Descending).
3. In which direction do you estimate the breakout will occur and WHY? (Argument: volume, overall trend, shape).
Let's analyze the current market together and find these "compressed springs." I will personally comment on the most accurate observations!
90% of traders see a triangle after a breakout, when the price is already in the middle of the impulse. Your goal is to see it before. The difference between these two groups is the difference between profit and loss. Patterns do not predict the future — they show where energy accumulates to create it.
