Chart Patterns
Chart Patterns are a group of commonly recognizable price formations that appear on the charts of stocks, commodities and other financial assets. When properly detected, these patterns provide the technician (also known as "chartist") with a framework within which he/she can attempt to forecast future market trends and price objectives.
