Most "chart patterns" content is recycled garbage. Here are 3 that I actually use daily to find entries.

1. Bull Flag

After a strong move up, price consolidates in a tight downward channel. The breakout above the flag = your entry. Works especially well on 4H and daily timeframes for BTC and ETH.

Key: Volume should drop during the flag and spike on breakout.

2. Double Bottom

Price hits a support level twice and bounces. The neckline break is your entry. I use this constantly on altcoins when they're finding a floor after a selloff.

Key: Second bottom should hold slightly above or at the first. If it breaks below, the pattern is invalid.

3. Ascending Triangle

Flat resistance with higher lows pushing up into it. This one screams accumulation. When resistance finally breaks, it usually moves fast.

Key: Look for this on coins that have been ranging for weeks — the longer the range, the bigger the breakout.

These aren't magic. They fail sometimes. The edge comes from combining them with proper risk management and not overleveraging.
