3 CHART PATTERNS
CHEAT SHEET
You already know my three favorite chart patterns and why I use them. Visit
http://dailypriceaction.com/free-forex-trading-lessons/3-forex-chart-patterns-you-
need-to-know to see them all.
But sifting through a 2,000-word lesson for actionable information can be a
challenge. Also, knowing which patterns I trade is great, but knowing how I trade
them is far more beneficial.
Well, you’re in luck because I’ve put together this cheat
sheet that will show you exactly how I trade all three price
formations including how I determine profit targets and
stop loss levels.
1 HEAD AND SHOULDERS PATTERN (AND INVERSE)
Key Characteristics
The head must be higher than both shoulders (or lower for the inverse head
and shoulders)
Shoulders must be on the same horizontal plane
Entry Rules
