Ticker: 6702.T
Exchange: Tokyo Stock Exchange
Sector: Technology
Introduction:
Hello and welcome to our technical analysis session! Today we are focusing on Fujitsu Limited as observed on the weekly chart on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. An intriguing symmetrical triangle formation has caught our attention, which may act as a bullish continuation.
Symmetrical Triangle Pattern:
A symmetrical triangle is a price pattern characterized by converging trend lines and oscillating price within the pattern. It can serve as a continuation or a reversal signal. The breakout direction tends to predict the subsequent trend direction.
Analysis:
Preceding this consolidation phase, Fujitsu's price exhibited a clear uptrend. The ongoing consolidation phase, shaped as a symmetrical triangle, has been forming for 616 days. There are three points of contact with the triangle's upper boundary and two with its lower boundary.
Notably, this consolidation phase takes place above the 200 EMA, indicating a bullish environment. If we see a weekly candlestick close above 18400, it could serve as an opportune moment for a long position entry.
Assuming a valid breakout, our projected price target is at 26025, translating into a potential price rise of approximately 41.33%.
Conclusion:
The weekly chart of Fujitsu Limited presents a potential bullish continuation pattern in the form of a symmetrical triangle. A confirmed breakout above the triangle's upper boundary could offer a promising long position entry.

NVDA Technical Analysis Bullish if we break out of the "Pattern Resistance" $318.28 range. (Double top)
Pullback if we break and hold under minor support, projected support found at $305.50 range should we breakout of the Symmetrical Triangle pattern.
Earnings may disrupt market structure, pre-market analysis will be crucial.
Bitcoin is starting something big! (Elliott Wave)
Bitcoin is very bearish, and I expect lower prices. We have a strong bearish Elliott Wave base (a symmetrical triangle), and on the chart you can see my primary Elliott Wave count. This strong Elliott Wave base is an indication of a big crash.
The price should not go above 27666 (only a wick is allowed above this level). This is a strong resistance because of the previous wave (1), and wave (4) should not go into wave (1) territory. But I have an exception for this ruse, so I allow a very small overlap. Usually there are a lot of orders, and the market wants liquidity, which is why sometimes they overlap. Also, it depends on exchanges.
The bullish Elliott wave count is different. The symmetrical triangle could be an ABCDE triangle wave B, and we have just finished the ABC correction. In this case, the ABC correction could be completed, and we are ready to go above 31k. It's possible, of course, but my primary outlook is bearish. But if you are bullish, you can take this count into consideration.
In the next few weeks or months, Bitcoin will reach 21k and 15k after that at the end of the year. 10K is possible. We need more data to establish the target for the bear market, and we need to wait for the price to develop.
This analysis is not a trade setup; there is no stop-loss, entry point, profit target, expected duration of the trade, risk-to-reward ratio, or timing. I post trade setups privately.
What I personally recommend is to take only shorts on futures and avoid longs until the end of the year.

COST WCA - Awaiting a Breakout from SymmetryCompany: Costco Wholesale Corporation
Ticker: COST
Exchange: NASDAQ
Sector: Consumer Defensive
Introduction:
Greetings and thank you for taking the time to read my analysis. Today, we delve into the weekly chart of Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST) which has been forming a symmetrical triangle pattern for the past 12.88 months. This pattern is typically a sign of market indecision, and we're anticipating a breakout soon.
Symmetrical Triangle Pattern:
A symmetrical triangle is a chart pattern in technical analysis used by traders to predict future price movements. It is formed when the price of an asset consolidates between converging trendlines that slope towards each other, creating a triangular shape. The pattern is characterized by lower highs and higher lows, indicating a tightening price range as the market reaches a point of equilibrium between buying and selling pressure. In this case, we have 5 clear touch points on the upper trendline and 3 on the lower trendline.
Analysis:
Costco's price is currently above the 200 EMA, and given the clear uptrend preceding the triangle, we are inclined to see this symmetrical triangle as a bullish continuation pattern. However, the inherent indecision signaled by the symmetrical triangle means we should hold off on calculating a price target until a definite breakout occurs.
Moreover, a breakout must occur soon, as the closer we get to the triangle's apex, the weaker the effect of the breakout. This makes COST a high-priority watchlist candidate that should produce a result soon, regardless of the direction it takes.
Conclusion:
The Costco Wholesale Corporation weekly chart analysis points towards a symmetrical triangle pattern, indicating market indecision and a potential breakout soon. Traders should closely monitor this chart for signs of a breakout.
Remember, this analysis is not financial advice. Always conduct your own research when investing and consider risk management and proper position sizing when trading based on chart patterns.

BTC QUICK UPDATE!Hello everyone, if you like the idea, do not forget to support it with a like and follow.
Welcome to this quick BTC update. BTC is moving in a range of FWB:27K -$30k for many days. So what's next from here?
BTC is forming a symmetrical triangle-like structure in the daily time frame and once again it got rejected from the upper trendline of the triangle. We have two important supports below. One is at around FWB:27K and another one is at around FWB:25K level.
IMO BTC holds the first support of FWB:27K and we might see a quick bounce from there. For a bullish scenario, we need a clear breakout of this triangle. As of now let's see how the price reacts after reaching the FWB:27K level.
Invalidation:- Daily close below FWB:27K
If you like this idea then do support it with like and follow.

🚩Symmetrical Triangle🚩 #️⃣OKXIDEAS !!!👨🏫Hello, everyone!👋 (Reading time less than 7 minutes⏰).
I’m here with another educational post to help you learners become super traders gradually.
🔅 As you know, various tools are usually used in any financial market to analyze all types of stocks, cryptocurrencies, and assets. Chart patterns are one of the essential tools used in technical analysis, and analysts evaluate the market movement and prepare to trade based on technical-fundamental studies.
🔅 The Symmetrical Triangle is one of the most used classic continuous patterns in the field, but it can sometimes turn into reversal patterns, as some analysts say.
🔷 So I’ll explain the following in this article:
Defining the triangle pattern
Getting to know the structure of a Symmetrical Triangle
Types of Symmetrical Triangles
How to trade using the Symmetrical Triangle pattern
Price target after Symmetrical Triangle pattern
The importance of trading volume in the Symmetrical Triangle pattern
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Triangle Pattern:
🔅The triangle pattern is one of the most well-known patterns many traders spend time on. A triangle is a trend continuation pattern that can occur in upward or downward trends. This triangle pattern is formed when a stock, cryptocurrency, or whatever shrinks towards an uptrend or downtrend.
The pattern represents a pause in the price trend, and the price consolidates in a range.
🔅 The triangle pattern consists of two converging lines with different slopes depending on the type. At least four major pivots are needed in the specific time frame to form a triangle pattern.
Basically, to form a triangle, 45 to 60 candles are needed in the specific time frame.
🔅 The take-profit of this pattern is considered the distance from the first top to the first bottom inside the triangle.
🔷 According to research, 84% agree that the triangle pattern is a continuation pattern that is divided into three types as follows:
Symmetrical triangle
Ascending Triangle
Descending Triangle
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One of the types of triangles that can lead you to money is Symmetrical Triangle which I’ll explain here:
Symmetrical Triangle Pattern in Upward Trends:
Take a look at the picture below. You can see the price forms tops and bottoms after an upward trend and then forms lower tops and higher bottoms.
🔅 Now try to draw a resistance line at the top and a support line at the bottom. What do you see? Yeah! That’s a triangle. These two lines will make a tip called the triangle's apex. If the four pivots(at least), two tops and two bottoms, are connected with a line, you can say a Symmetrical Triangle pattern in an upward trend has occurred.
🔅 It’s noted that if the price breaks the support trend line and drops, you’ll see this as a reversal pattern or a Symmetrical Triangle in the downward trend. Not always; a Symmetrical Triangle is a continuous pattern. So Watch out!
Here’s a picture of a reversal Symmetrical Triangle and how to trade while it is considered a reversal.
How to trade on the Symmetrical Triangle in an upward trend:
1-After the pattern completes, you must wait for the pattern to give us the entry confirmation(the upper line of the Symmetrical Triangle).
2-Try to open a long position when the real breakout happens. That can make a good profit. The real breakout occurs when a green candle like the Marubozu candle closes above the upper line of the Symmetrical Triangle or the resistance line.
3-Don’t forget to put a stop-loss. That will be below the breakout candle or below the prior candle’s bottom.
The distance between the first top and the first bottom in the triangle would be one of high risk-to-reward ratio take-profit points.
The other way to take the profit is to draw a line from the first top facing the support trend line along.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Symmetrical Triangle Pattern in Downward Trends
🔅 Another trend that a Symmetrical Triangle can move is downward trend when the price continues downward after forming the pattern.
🔅 Luckily, one of the best tools that can help you earn lots of money is the Symmetrical Triangle because it supports two-sided markets. But the question is how this type of triangle forms. Stay with me.
🔅 Imagine you’re walking through the bushes for a long time, then you’ll get tired, and you don’t feel energetic in your feet to move on. So do buyers and sellers in the financial markets.
🔅 When the price of an asset enters a converging trend of lower tops and higher bottoms, buyers and sellers test how strong the trend is. The buyers make bottoms at a higher price as sellers prevent the creation of a higher top.
🔅 In this case, the sellers are mostly winners, so better to be a seller rather than a buyer. Like the pattern I already discussed, the Symmetrical Triangle pattern in a downward trend needs at least four significant pivots to be confirmed.
🔅 There's also a possibility of breaking the upper line of the Symmetrical Triangle on the top after the Symmetrical Triangle pattern formation. The reversal pattern has occurred in this case, and the long position is considered a plan.
How to trade on the Symmetrical Triangle in a downward trend:
1-You have to wait for the candles to break the lower line of the Symmetrical Triangle. But the only key point is that if the breakout is valid. So if the breakout candle closes below the lower line of the Symmetrical Triangle, it’s time to open a short position.
2-The stop-loss will be above the last top. Therefore, in case of opening a short position on an asset, you can also place your stop-loss above the breakout candle for a higher risk-to-reward ratio.
3-The price targets will be 1) the distance between the first bottom and the first top, or 2) you can draw a line from the first bottom facing the resistance line.
🔷 Below, you can see a Symmetrical Triangle in a downward trend and how you can trade with it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Importance of Trading Volume in the Symmetrical Triangle Pattern
🔅 The asset chart is in correction as long as the price chart is inside the Symmetrical Triangle pattern.
🔅 The trading volume in the pattern process will be neutral as most traders are waiting for the follow-up movement of the asset.
🔅 The closer the chart gets to the apex of the triangle to depart from the pattern, the range of fluctuations and the trading volume become less and less.
🔅 The importance of trading volume in the Symmetrical Triangle pattern can be seen near the exit from the pattern.
🔅 If the previous trend of the chart was bullish, it is likely that the trading volume will increase dramatically if the pattern is broken.
🔅 Also, the trading volume will decrease near the triangle's apex, but it increases instantly after breaking out, whether it is an upward or downward trend.
🔅 For this purpose, examining the trading volume in different areas of the pattern can greatly help us better understand the trend and predict the future of the asset.
🔅 In a way, you always have to wait for the chart to go out of the pattern, and by checking the direction of the trend and trading volume, you can make a better decision about buying or selling your currencies.

Symmetrical Triangle in Elliott Theory
The Symmetrical Triangle called the “Contracting Triangle,” is a basic pattern in Elliott Waves. Elliott triangles can be considered one of the stable consolidation patterns in the market, which can be divided into five waves. To return, each of these five waves carries three sub-waves.
The waves of the triangle are named A, B, C, D, and E.
The Symmetrical Triangle can often be seen as a continuation pattern that creates a pause in the trend and then resumes.
In this pattern, wave A, which is the biggest wave in the pattern, can be a zigzag, double zigzag, triple zigzag, or a flat pattern, and wave B can only be a zigzag, double zigzag, or triple zigzag.
Waves D and C can also move in their pattern by a zigzag pattern, and finally, an E wave is formed, which can be a zigzag, double zigzag, triple zigzag, and sometimes a triangle.
In a Symmetrical Triangle, waves B, C, and D often cover 61.8% of the previous wave.
Finally, by drawing this pattern's up-and-down trend lines, the lines get close to each other and cannot be parallel.
