Chart Patterns

Head and Shoulders

Pattern Description:

The head-and-shoulders pattern is believed to be one of the most reliable trend-reversal patterns. It consists of three successive rallies, the second being the highest. The name derives from the fact that on a chart the first and third rallies look like shoulders and the second looks like a head. Completion of the pattern constitutes initiation of a bear market.

Elasticity Toolkit

The Elasticity toolkit was created to obtain maximum gains in both sideways and trending markets with minimum risk. Developed by Timothy Straiton, the system performs with incredible results in almost all equity markets with a daily periodicity. The Elasticity toolkit focuses on short-term market fluctuations and takes advantage of deviation or "elasticity" from the mean price. One could visualize the action of a rubber band being stretched and at the moment where the expansion loses momentum, a contraction takes place, forcing movement in the opposite direction. The Elasticity system opens a trade at the moment that deviation from the mean price loses momentum.

Things to watch out for when trading

I decided to write this post after reading so much of the anger in some of those trading forums, after some traders lose a significant portion of their wealth on the markets.

A death cross activated on J.P Morgan

2026-03-28 by Tim Straiton

Over the past 4 years, J.P Morgan has exhibited outstanding performance, having risen from the October 2022 low of $101.76 and culminating in a high of $337.25 in January 2026. However, recent technical developments suggest that further downside pressure is becoming more likely.

Last week's trading activity saw a death cross activated, while the daily MACD-V indicator has been flashing bearish divergence ever since the third quarter of 2025. The stock closed the week ending 27th March at $282.84 and just above the Fibonacci 23.6% retracement from the high. based on the entire range traded since October 2022. Focus is now directed toward the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level at $247 and thereafter to the 50% retracement level at $219.
