Upwards Trend Reversal Strategy
After price has moved in an up-ward direction for an extended period of time within a up trend it reaches a point where it stops moving within the upward trend. When this happens we say the up-wards trendline has been broken & this is interpreted and analyzed as a up trend reversal setup.
An upward trend line acts as support. A break in that support after an uptrend signals a shift. Prices should drop the other way. Traders see this as a reversal setup.
This specific reversal configuration can be effectively integrated with the double top reversal chart patterns detailed further down.
Pair Trendline Reversals with Double Top Patterns
A solid setup is to combine an upward trend reversal with double top patterns - check out the Double Top Reversal Chart Patterns Guide.
Double top reversal chart pattern setups should already be formed before the up trendline break signal. Because these double tops are also reversal setups, combining these two trend reversal setups gives traders a good chance of avoiding a whipsaw.
In the uptrend turnaround described above, these double tops turnaround setups can be verified as having been created even before the trend line turnaround signal showed up.
This shows an upward reversal example. The double tops pattern formed first. Then the uptrend line broke on the chart.
