Location \u2013 Price at a Key Zone<\/b><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Major support\/resistance level honoured<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prior swing highs or lows at a similar price point<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Higher timeframe structure \u2013 I,e, agreement on a 4 hourly chart as well as an hourly.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In simple terms, if the price isn\u2019t at a meaningful location, a meaningful reversal is less likely to occur.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2. Previous Signs of Trend Exhaustion<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have covered this above, with evidence that the current trend has now weakened, and there is some justification to prepare to enter a counter-trend.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3. Structural Confirmation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the trading trigger you are looking for as a potential signal for entry. Structural confirmation transforms an idea (\u201cthe price might reverse\u201d) into an actual setup (\u201cthe reversal is underway\u201d).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Look for the following four signs:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trendline or key short-term moving average breached\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lower highs and lower lows in an uptrend or higher lows in a downtrend<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Confirmation that a key swing point has been honoured<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Evidence that a retest and rejection of the broken structure has occurred.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This shows that momentum has not just stalled, it has now shifted.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Context Filters<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reversals are more likely to succeed when conditions are supported by other factors. This is to do with the identification of a strong market context where reversals are more likely to happen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These may include:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Time of day<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: The open of London or US sessions, or into session close when there may be some profit taking on a previously strong move<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Volatility extremes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Price has expanded beyond its normal daily range (ATR-based or visually evidenced on a chart)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Market sentiment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Everyone is already long at the top or short at the bottom \u2014 setting up for a squeeze<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Catalysts<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Reactions to news, or data, that may cause a significant one-sided move<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adding context could make the difference between a technically correct trade and one that may offer a higher probability of going in your desired direction.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Recognising Common Reversal Patterns<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are classic chart patterns that may help visually reinforce the principles.
