Question 1 of 20 · tools.score 0

tools.whatItDoes

Twenty practice questions present simplified chart pattern visuals — triangles, flags, head-and-shoulders, double tops, channels, and more — and ask you to identify the pattern.

tools.howToUse

  1. Look at the pattern visual.
  2. Pick the matching name.
  3. Read the explanation and move on.

tools.example

Sample: a rounded top after an uptrend, with two shoulders and a higher head. Answer: head and shoulders. The neckline is the break level traders watch for confirmation.

tools.commonMistakes

  • Naming patterns that aren't really there.
  • Confusing flags (continuation) with wedges (often reversal).
  • Forgetting that patterns are reaction maps, not predictions.
