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.

Musk presents "Optimus" at Tesla's AI Day.

  Tesla CEO Elon Musk unveils "Optimus" at "AI Day" on Friday. A robot-based business would be worth more than a car-based business, the billionaire said. He wants to move beyond self-driving cars, which he has repeatedly promised. Onstage, a robot model waved to the audience. In the automaker's factory, a video showed the robot moving metal bars and watering plants. "Our goal is to make a useful humanoid robot as soon as possible," Musk said. "Optimus needs a lot of work to be effective." Musk said humanoid robots "lack a brain" because they can't travel the world independently. He also said they're expensive and rare. Optimus would be mass-produced in the millions and cost less than $20,000, he said. Musk expected to discuss Tesla's self-driving car technology. In May, the CEO said the world's most valuable car company would be "worthless" without self-driving cars. The company faces regulatory and techno...

Hackers from North Korea are stealing NFTs using almost 500 different phishing domains.

  The cybercriminals established dummy websites that posed as legitimate NFT marketplaces, NFT projects, and even a DeFi platform. There have been reports that hackers with ties to North Korea's Lazarus Group are behind a massive phishing campaign aimed at investors in nonfungible tokens (NFTs). This campaign is said to have used nearly 500 phishing domains to trick victims. SlowMist, a blockchain security company, published a report on December 24 revealing the strategies that North Korean Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups have used to separate NFT investors from their NFTs. These strategies include the use of decoy websites that are disguised as a variety of different NFT-related platforms and projects. Some examples of these fake websites include a website that pretends to be a project associated with the World Cup, as well as websites that impersonate well-known NFT marketplaces like OpenSea, X2Y2, and Rarible. Another example of one of these fake websites is a website th...

By 2030, the GCC economies are expected to receive $15 billion annually from the metaverse.

According to the most recent report from Strategy& Middle East, a member of the PwC network, the potential contribution of the metaverse to the GCC economies may be roughly US$15 billion yearly by 2030, of which $7.6 billion would be in Saudi Arabia and $3.3 billion in the UAE. The metaverse is still in its early stages, yet change is happening quickly. Companies in the GCC should move right away to take advantage of this chance. According to Tony G. Karam, Partner at Strategy & Middle East, by 2030, the metaverse will contribute $15 billion yearly to the economies of the GCC. The forecasts evaluated new metaverse applications like content production, commerce, and other activities as well as growth in the underlying platforms, hardware, and software. The metaverse's charm lies in the fact that it is neither a location nor a tool. Instead, it represents the most recent development in human/computer interface technology, one that aims to produce a seamless, pervasive, immers...
