Bullflagpattern

Bullish Ascending Triangle - Near Breakout TerritoryHigher lows in recent swings show bullish consolidation and formation of an ascending triangle which could also be interpreted as a bull flag nearing the breakout zone. This next test of a strong resistance around 1730 level will be very informative of the future direction of gold. I expect if price rejects this level a third time (triple top) it will break lower and re-test the 1680 level but remain bullish overall. If price breaks higher than recent tops around 1735-1740, we could see a breakout and run up to 2012 highs, around 1770-1790. I suspect the latter more likely, as outlined on the chart. Overall, near term fundamentals and technicals remain pretty bullish on gold. What are your thoughts?

EURNZD 1D BULL FLAG LONG TRADEBull Flags are a Range pattern and are a repeatable trading chart patterns. Bull Flag chart patterns will have a directional bias depending on the previous incoming trend. Each chart pattern will have defining trendlines of the support/resistance levels creating the pattern.

Add volume indicator - Volume is the amount of $ that went into a particular candle or in Forex the # of trades that took place. Add ATR indicator - Volatility is the amount of price movement that occurred. Use the ATR to measure the price movement. When you see descending Volume bars and descending ATR line (which indicates volatility) this shows a dis-interest in traders to invest in this pair creating consolidation which creates the chart pattern.

How to Trade Bull & Bear Flag Pattern | Flag Pattern Tutorial !Bull & Bear Flag chart patterns Tutorial! Bull Flag : A bull flag forms in bullish trending market, After a strong bullish movement when this pattern forms it signals the market is likely to move more higher. Bull flag pattern much similarly looks like a horizontal parallel channel or downward parallel channel along with a strong bullish vertical rally; when we draw the pattern it looks like flag on a pole, that's why they are called bull flags. How to identify and Trade Bull Flags : - It is easy to identify a bull flag you just need to look for a Bullish Vertical Rally or Trend which is Pole of the Flag then identify the consolidation which will look like either horizontal channel or downward channel which will be the Flag. After identifying the pattern you can enter at the bottom of the flag or you can enter when price breaks the upper trendline of the flag which is more safe. The breakout may also be a fakeout that's why we will take help of Volume and RSI Indicator to confirm the breakout. As shown on the below example you can see when price breaked the uppper trend of the flag the Trend drawn on the RSI was also broke and the Volume was high. () ( *Key things to know : If the retracement measured from the vertical rally or Flag Pole retrace more than 50% the pattern becomes weak and it may not be a Flag Pattern but sometimes it stays valid if it breakouts above the uppertrend of the flag.) Bear Flag : Bear Flag is just the opposite of the Bull Flag Pattern. A bear Flag forms in bearish trending market. Bear Flag pattern signals the market is likely to drop more lower. You need to identify Bear Flag in bearish trend when the price of a financial asset drops then if the price forms a horizontal channel or upward channel which will look like a inverted flag whose flag pole will be upside and the flag will be downside.
