Bank Nifty Chart Pattern - Downward Projection

Bank nifty got heavy rejection from its earlier days high of 44353. After 01:00 pm, I identified another double top chart formation on Bank nifty chart. It was not a perfect M pattern though but decided to flow with the present market sentiment and a short sell entry signal triggered at 43260 with a stop loss above its earlier high. I projected a target level of 44050-44000 for this particular short sell trade setup.

Look at the 3-minutes Bank nifty chart, screen captured after the entry signal, based on the double top chart pattern after the rejection from days high.

Price consolidated for a long time in that zone and finally collapsed to lower levels. Bank nifty made a low of 44134 before days closing. Though it didn’t reached to the target zone but from the entry to closing price produced more than 100 points gain in the favor of that particular short sell signal.

On Monday (28th August), if banknifty spot breaks 44360 on the upper side, only then I will be looking for scalping or intraday buy trade setup/s. On the downside, If it breaks 43940 on the downside then will adopt a sell on rise approach based on live chart setup.

What is W pattern and M pattern

W pattern: In technical analysis of financial markets, a “W pattern” refers to a chart pattern that resembles the letter “W”. This pattern is often considered a reversal pattern, indicating a potential shift from a downtrend to an uptrend. It consists of two downward price movements followed by a smaller upward movement, then followed by another downward movement and finally a significant upward movement. The pattern is thought to represent a period of accumulation and subsequent trend reversal.

M pattern: Similar to the “W pattern,” an “M pattern” is a chart pattern commonly used in technical analysis of financial markets. It’s considered a reversal pattern that can indicate a potential shift from an uptrend to a downtrend. The pattern consists of two upward price movements followed by a downward movement, then another upward movement, and finally a significant downward movement. This pattern is thought to represent a period of distribution and a potential trend reversal.
