With stock markets in deep decline, traders must stay cautious and adhere to their plans.
At the same time, it is smart to identify potential technical patterns and what-if scenarios to help identify potential trend changes.
Today, we look at a chart 4-pack to identify potential double bottom patterns.
The stock market indices shown below are the Invesco QQQ Trust (NASDAQ:QQQ), NYSE Composite, Russell 2000, and Wilshire 4500.
As you can see, these patterns have A LOT of work. Aggressive traders can only act on potential patterns with tight stops. More importantly, traders/investors should ask, “what will confirm this pattern?” To that end, each of the four indices would need to clear the downtrend lines at each (2).
These downtrends are a critical macro technical level across the four charts. Be safe, and stay tuned.
