Symmetrical triangle is a chart pattern characterized by higher lows and lower highs, with two trend lines converging at the same angle.



This pattern is usually considered a trend continuation signal. The formation of a symmetrical triangle indicates that market volatility has been compressed over a period of time, suggesting an imminent breakout.

Technical features of the "Symmetrical Triangle" pattern

- A clear trend must exist before the triangle forms to determine the subsequent direction
- At least 4 touches: 2 on the dynamic support line (ascending) and 2 on the dynamic resistance line (descending). The more touches, the more reliable the pattern
- As the price converges, trading volume should gradually decrease
- Although symmetrical triangles typically break out in the direction of the trend, false breakouts in the opposite direction can occasionally occur. For safer trading, it is recommended to wait for a pullback to confirm the breakout area (upper or lower boundary)
