CHANNEL BREAK OUT
A channel breakout is a trading concept in technical analysis where a security's price breaks out above or below a established trading channel, indicating a potential new trend or direction.
A trading channel is formed by drawing two parallel lines, one representing support and the other resistance, which contain the price action over a specific period. The channel can be ascending, descending, or neutral, depending on the trend.
A channel breakout occurs when the price:
1. Breaks above the upper resistance line (bullish breakout)
2. Breaks below the lower support line (bearish breakout)
This breakout signals a potential change in the trend, as the price is now moving outside the established range. Traders and investors often consider channel breakouts as a trading opportunity, as they can indicate:
1. A new trend is emerging
2. A continuation of the existing trend
3. A reversal of the existing trend
On this Chart we will be focusing on the bullish side because it's a bullish break of candlestick but be on a market watch about the white doted line which is the support and resistance which I have identified. If you look closely you will notice a 200 Moving Average. Be careful at the point.
By recognizing channel breakouts, traders and investors can potentially capitalize on new trends and market movements.
