Symmetrical Continuation Triangle - Trending123

Generally, a triangle pattern is considered to be a continuation or consolidation pattern. Sometimes, however, the formation marks a reversal of a trend.

Converging trendlines of support and resistance gives the triangle pattern its distinctive shape. This occurs, Kahn explains, because "the trading action gets tighter and tighter until the market breaks out with great force." Buyers and sellers find themselves in a period where they are not sure where the market is headed. Their uncertainty is marked by their actions of buying and selling sooner, making the pattern look like an increasingly tight coil moving across the chart.

What do you guys think ? Which line do you think bitcoin is going to break ?

I think it's interesting how the distance is the same between every high and low so far (the lines are not the same distance apart on a time graph). The chart seems "organic" and what you'd expect in a market with many people each holding a small amount.

This is the first time that I'm trying my hand at TA, so be nice.

Support breaks. Down. Or no break and we go sideways.

I like it, as it seems you can gain new insights when discarding one type of information in the system quite efficiently. Normally you discard volume and leave price and time.
In the same way it should be obvious to discard price and leave volume and time, or make it a 3D chart.

It will go up.

Or it will go down.

Or it will stay the same.


Don't read too much into TA.

looks like the first 3rd of your chart is like 2 years of data scrunched up into the chart. Hardly a fair analysis. lol
