How Does a Rising Wedge Look? What Is It?

How Does a Rising Wedge Look? What Is It?

Two trend lines that meet in the middle to form a rising wedge define a bearish chart pattern. The trend lines ascend and converge.

The latest lower highs and higher highs are connected by the first trend line, while the most recent lows are connected by the second trend line. The formed shape resembles an up-angled triangle. A falling wedge is the pattern of a rising wedge.

Given that the lower trend line is steeper than the upper one and that the low is higher than the high, the rising wedge pattern could be interpreted as a bearish wedge.

The only differences between the falling wedges, despite having a similar shape, are the triangle's angle and the pattern's implication.

The rising wedge (ascending) pattern is a negative pattern because it predicts future falling prices or a breakout to a downtrend as the wedge develops.

Even though the wedge is still capturing the upward price trend, the reductions in trading volume may be a sign that sellers are tightening their positions in anticipation of a negative breakout.

On the other side, the falling wedge (descending) pattern has a bullish slope, slanting downward and indicating a near-term rebound.

The intriguing part is that a rising wedge can show up as a continuation pattern during a downturn or as a reversal pattern during an uptrend.

What Form Do Rising Wedges Take?

The rising wedge pattern takes on the shape of a slice of pizza when two trend lines connect. Higher highs and lower lows are produced in succession by the rising wedge pattern.

The pattern's extreme high points must be covered by the resistance trend line. Two higher highs are required to break over the resistance line.

Create a trend line of support that includes the higher lows in a similar manner. You'll need at least two swing lows to draw the support trend line.

After drawing the trend lines for resistance and support, you should see a triangle that resembles a wedge. In the rising wedge design, the triangle's tip must face upward.

As a result, for this to be considered a rising wedge formation, the resistance trend line must slope upward.

The rising wedge pattern is a favorite among traders and technical analysts, despite the fact that it can be tough to spot in real time.

It is typical to mix up the triangle pattern, which is a continuation formation, with the rising wedge pattern, which is a reversal formation.

The ascending wedge pattern's clear entry and exit signals make it the ideal choice for traders who want to short the market or use the signals to manage their long-term HODL positions.

Asian currency bears retreat as the outlook for inflation improves.

  According to a fortnightly poll of 12 analysts, short positions on all emerging Asian currencies fell, with bets on China's yuan at their lowest since late April. Short positions in the Philippine peso, Singapore dollar, and Indonesian rupiah all hit multi-month lows. An unchanged July inflation print in the United States, the first notable sign of relief after years of rising prices, also helped boost sentiment in the region. Short bets on the Thai baht fell to their lowest level since early June after the Bank of Thailand (BoT) raised its interest rate by 25 basis points on Wednesday, resuming its tightening cycle after trailing regional peers. Thailand, whose economy is heavily reliant on tourism, has begun to show signs of a gradual economic recovery as tourists return, allowing the BoT to adjust its monetary policy. Analysts widely anticipate that the BoT will maintain gradual policy normalisation throughout the rest of the year. The baht, one of the least shorted currencies

Soft demand lowers China's producer prices and consumer inflation.

China's factory-gate prices fell for a second month in November, but consumer inflation slowed, reflecting poor activity and tepid demand in a pandemic-slowed economy. Analysts anticipate the government to maintain rates low and create confidence. According to Friday's National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) data, the producer price index (PPI) was down 1.3% from a year earlier. Reuters had predicted a 1.4% drop. The November CPI grew 1.6% from a year earlier, slower than October's 2.1% annual growth but in line with a Reuters survey. "These figures show economic momentum (continues) to decline," said Pinpoint Asset Management's Zhiwei Zhang. In 2023, the government will focus on stabilizing growth, boosting domestic demand, and opening up to the globe, according to a Politburo meeting on Tuesday. Zhang said the government would take further steps to boost the economy despite easing pandemic controls last week. "The Politburo highlighted low confidence as an
