Long back, I read a book “Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns” by Thomas N. Bukowski. It’s a brilliant work (Must read).
I read about those patterns at many other places & in different theories and I realised that most of them are-
Triangles, Broadenings & Brackets or Rectangle patterns are most common & effective patterns. Below are 5 bullish & bearish proven, time-tested patterns of these categories.
Rectangle Breakout:
Horizontal pattern breakout. Price remains between two horizontal lines before upward brkout. Its a decent continuation breakout pattern when appears in uptrend. Reversal pattern when appear in downtrend (Decent Risk-reward). Tend to pullback
Two-bottoms around same level followed by the breakout. Good reversal patterns when they appear in downtrend. If you don’t wait for the breakout, the failure rate is significantly high. Many call it double bottom even before the breakout, they must know it.
Pattern of convergence followed by upside breakout. Nice continuation pattern if appears in uptrend. Bullish triangles breakouts have got better performance. High volume at breakout would be nice.
The top is horizontal in the triangle and the bottoms are upsloping. Ascending triangles are bullish in nature. Resistance at top but bottoms are rising. Bullish breakouts have better ratio. The reward to risk ratio in triangle patterns is high.
Price remains within the down slopping and converging trendlines followed by upside breakout. I also call it falling triangle. It is a decent bullish trend reversal pattern.
Symmetrical triangle - bearish
Symmetrical triangle appears in the downtrend followed by the bearish breakout. It is a bearish continuation pattern having high risk-reward ratio.
Top is descending and bottom is horizontal in the triangle pattern. Descending tops indicate supply and horizontal bottom is a strong support. The pattern is bearish in nature and downside breakout is a decent trade setup.
Also known as Megaphone or Expanding triangle. When it appears in downtrend, its more of a continuation pattern (downside breakouts are better) than reversal. When it appears in uptrend, downside breakout would be a better setup.
The top is horizontal in the broadening pattern. The lows are following the down slopping trendline. New lows are being made and there is a strong resistance at top. Downside breakout would be a bearish setup.
The pattern that looks like letter J reversed. It is a bearish continuation pattern. The trend is down and established. The bearish trades are expected to have a better risk-reward.

Following @BAUDEGS I have experienced hateful and propagandist tweets time after time. I have been shocked that an academic community would be so reckless with their publications. So I did some research.
