Welcome to Part 3! In our previous posts, we looked at individual candles. Now, let’s zoom out. Chart Patterns are formed by groups of candles over time, revealing the overall "geometry" of the market.
1. The Head and Shoulders (Trend Reversal) 👤
This is one of the most famous patterns. It signals that an uptrend is officially over.
The Look: A high peak (Head) between two slightly lower peaks (Shoulders). All three rest on a support line called the Neckline. The Trade: When the price breaks below the Neckline, it’s a strong signal that a downtrend is starting.
2. Double Bottom & Double Top (The 'W' and 'M') 💎
These patterns show that the market has tested a price level twice and failed to break it.
Double Bottom (W): Price hits a low, bounces, hits the same low again, and then pumps. (Bullish) Double Top (M): Price hits a high, drops, hits the same high again, and then dumps. (Bearish)
3. Bull & Bear Flags (The Trend Continuations) 🚩
Not every pattern means a reversal. Flags tell you that the market is just taking a "breather" before continuing the same way.
Bull Flag: A sharp move up (the pole) followed by a small downward-sloping channel (the flag). The Signal: When the price breaks the upper part of the flag, the upward trend usually resumes with force.
💡 Pro Tip: The Volume Secret
For a chart pattern to be "valid," watch the Volume. A breakout from a pattern (like a Bull Flag) should ideally happen on high volume. If the volume is low, it might be a "fakeout"!

In Part 1, we covered the basics. Today, we dive into more advanced Reversal Patterns used by professional traders to spot the exact moment a trend is about to flip.
1. The Shooting Star (Bearish Reversal) ☄️
Think of this as the "inverted hammer." It appears at the top of an uptrend.
The Look: A small body at the bottom with a very long upper wick. The Story: Buyers tried to push the price higher, but sellers flooded the market and slammed the price back down. This is a strong warning that the uptrend is losing steam.
2. Morning Star & Evening Star (The 3-Candle Powerhouses) ✨
These patterns are highly reliable because they show a complete shift in sentiment over three sessions.
Morning Star: A large red candle + a small indecisive candle + a large green candle. Signal: The bottom is in; get ready for a pump. Evening Star: A large green candle + a small indecisive candle + a large red candle. Signal: The top is in; price may dump.
3. Tweezer Bottoms & Tops 🖇️
This pattern shows a "double rejection" of a specific price level.
Tweezer Bottom: Two or more candles with matching lows at a support level. It shows that bears are hitting a "brick wall." Tweezer Top: Two or more candles with matching highs at a resistance level. It shows the bulls have run out of fuel.
💡 Pro Tip for Success:
Never trade a pattern in isolation. Candlestick patterns work best when they occur at Support or Resistance levels or align with the RSI (Relative Strength Index) showing overbought or oversold conditions.

Hi everyone! 👋 As I continue my $100 profit challenge, I realized one thing: making money is important, but not losing it is even more important! Today, the market is a bit sideways, so instead of jumping into a risky trade, I spent my time reviewing my Risk Management rules. Here is what I follow: Don't All-In: Never put all your capital into one single trade. 🚫Use Stop-Loss: It protects you from massive crashes while you sleep. 😴Control Emotions: Don't buy just because you see a green candle (FOMO). Wait for the right entry! 🧘♂️ My journey to $100 is still on track! I’m currently watching $SOL and $BNB for a potential breakout. 🚀 Question for you: What is the #1 rule you follow to protect your capital? Let’s learn from each other in the comments! 👇 #CryptoTips #RiskManagement #BinanceSquare #tradingjourney
Hi Binance Community! 👋 I’m officially on the second day of my challenge to hit $100 in profit. Yesterday was all about setting the foundation and observing the market trends, especially with $SOL showing some interesting movements. Current Strategy: I’m currently focusing on "Spot Trading" and looking for coins with strong support levels. My goal isn't to get rich overnight, but to learn the discipline of taking small, consistent profits. 📈 Today’s Watchlist: Solana ($SOL ): Still looking strong. If it breaks the current resistance, we might see a nice jump.Bitcoin ($BTC ): Watching the king closely to see the overall market direction. The Lesson of the Day: Patience is key. Sometimes the best trade is the one you don't take. 🧘♂️ I’m curious to know—what are you guys trading today? Are you bullish or bearish on the market right now?
