Where to look first

Start with progressively higher lows, then the repeatedly blocked area above. Structure is rising, but the rightmost price remains below previous-high resistance; a breakout is not confirmed.

Higher lows: follow A, B and C

A, B and C get progressively higher, indicating rising structure. A dashed line connects A and C; B lies near it, helping assess the intervening price reaction.

Previous-high resistance: repeated pullbacks above

Price pulled back several times near the upper band, making it a candidate resistance zone. Higher lows and overhead resistance can both be valid; consider them together.

What changes should you watch next?

  • If price moves above previous-high resistance, watch whether it holds when revisiting that area.
  • If price breaks below C and cannot recover, review the original rising structure.
  • No volume is shown, so this example does not assess volume-confirmed breakouts.

Turn this chart into a checkable observation

“The illustrative lows rise from A=100 to B=105 and C=109. Several highs reach the 118–119 area; the rightmost close is 116, still below it.” This describes visible values and locations without predicting the next candle. The numbers are original teaching data, not market quotes.

Breakout, retest and invalidation: what is still unconfirmed?

At the end of this image, price has not established itself above 118–119, so a post-breakout retest is not shown either. List the changes to watch for without describing them as completed events.

  • C=109 is a low in this illustration, not a universal stop-loss price. No volume is shown, so neither expanding nor declining volume can be inferred.
