As the crypto market continues to trend lower, our AI-based Chart Pattern recognition system is identifying nice winners...on the sell side.
 
First rule in trading: trade with the trend, trend is your friend.  That means we Short Sell assets in a Downtrend and Buy assets in an Uptrend.
  
When price is in a downtrend and gets rejected at resistance, there tends to be a follow through weakness and further decline in price.
 
Traders can profit from price declines by Short Selling.

What Are AI Chart Patterns?

altFINS AI-based Chart Pattern recognition engine identifies 26 trading patterns across multiple time intervals (15 min, 1h, 4h, 1d), saving traders a ton of time, including:

  • Ascending / Descending Triangle

  • Head and Shoulders, Inverse Head and Shoulders

  • Channel Up / Down

  • Falling / Rising Wedge

  • Double Bottom / Top

  • Triple Bottom / Top

  • Bullish / Bearish Flag

  • Bullish / Bearish Pennant

  • Rectangle

  • Support / Resistance and other.

Price patterns appear when traders are buying and selling at certain levels, and therefore, price oscillates between these levels, creating chart patterns.

When price finally does break out of the price pattern, it can represent a significant change in sentiment.
