ETC - Inverted H&S Pattern on the Line Break Chart

10 Eyl 2022

Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators 📈📉

Ev here. Been trading crypto since 2017 and later got into stocks. I have 3 board exams on financial markets and studied economics from a top tier university for a year. Daytime job - Math Teacher. 👩‍🏫

In today's analysis, I present an Inverted Head and Shoulders Pattern on ETCUSDT . An inverted H&S is different to an Inverse H&S. Inverse H&S patterns have a straight neckline whilst Inverted H&S have a tilted neckline.

If you noticed something strange about the chart, I have used the uncommon line break chart method. Three-line break charts originated in Japan during the 19th century and it is said that this technique was used in rice trading. This is another old form of charting originating from Japan along with the likes of Renko, Kagi and Heikin-ashi charts. Line-break chart was introduced to the western world by Steve Nison in his book Beyond Candlesticks. I find this really helpful to cancel out the noise and point out a clear trend. The line break chart is different to the candlesticks and as you can see, there are no wicks. Let's take a closer look at how exactly line break charts work. Have a look at image below. These are the closing prices of an asset:


If you connect these closing price and draw the line, it becomes a line chart:


Now, instead of connecting the dots and drawing the line chart, you can connect the two closing prices by drawing boxes:


Lastly, they are filled with Green and Red. If the closing point from one box to the next is higher, the price is bullish, color of the box is green and vice versa- If the closing of the new box is lower than the previous box, the price is bearish color of the box is red:


Now, back to the Ethereum Classic Inverted Head and Shoulders Pattern - I'm using the really helpful Head and Shoulders Pattern tool here on the chart, which you can find in the drobox on the left-hand side. A closer look at how to measure the ultimate target: You measure the height from the head to the neckline, and from the first resistance under the neckline you add that height to give you the estimated target:


Entry rule : Do not enter on a breakout without a close above the neckline. A high number of potential inverted head and shoulders patterns often will be broken only for it to be a fake breakout in the end. When price closes the trading session past the neckline it’s an additional confirmation that it’s a true breakout.


Have a great weekend 🥂. I hope you enjoyed this post today! Please give us a thumbs up 👍
