- Template:Infobox pattern
This article details the use of `Template:Infobox pattern`, a crucial tool for standardizing the presentation of technical analysis patterns within this wiki. This template allows for a consistent and informative display of pattern characteristics, aiding in quick identification, understanding, and application. It's designed for users of all experience levels, from absolute beginners to seasoned traders.
What is an Infobox Pattern?
In the context of this wiki, an 'Infobox Pattern' is a standardized presentation of information regarding a specific technical analysis pattern. Technical analysis patterns are visual formations on price charts that suggest potential future price movements. These patterns are used by traders to identify potential trading opportunities. Without a standardized format, information can be inconsistent, incomplete, or difficult to compare between different patterns. `Template:Infobox pattern` resolves this issue.
The template provides a structured way to present key data points for each pattern, including its formation, bullish/bearish implications, reliability, common occurrences, and associated indicators. This helps users quickly grasp the essential details of a pattern without having to sift through lengthy descriptions. Think of it as a concise and readily accessible 'cheat sheet' for each pattern. It enhances the discoverability of patterns using Search and allows for easier comparison between patterns like Head and Shoulders and Double Top.
Why Use the Infobox Pattern Template?
Several benefits motivate the use of this template:
- **Consistency:** Ensures all pattern articles follow a uniform format, improving readability and user experience.
- **Completeness:** Prompts authors to include essential information about each pattern.
- **Comparability:** Facilitates easy comparison between different patterns.
- **Accessibility:** Provides a quick overview of a pattern's key characteristics.
- **Maintainability:** Simplifies updating and maintaining pattern information.
- **Searchability:** Standardized fields improve the efficacy of wiki Search.
- **Improved Learning:** Helps beginners quickly learn the core elements of each pattern.
- **Professional Presentation:** Contributes to the overall quality and credibility of the wiki.
Anatomy of the Infobox Pattern Template
The template utilizes a series of predefined parameters. Understanding these parameters is crucial for correctly creating and editing pattern articles. Here's a detailed breakdown, along with explanation and examples:
- `pattern_name`: (Required) The name of the pattern. Example: `Double Bottom`
- `image`: (Optional) A URL to an image illustrating the pattern. This should be a clear and representative image. Example: `File:DoubleBottom.png`
- `image_caption`: (Optional) A brief caption describing the image. Example: `A typical Double Bottom pattern on a price chart.`
- `formation`: (Required) A detailed description of how the pattern forms. This should include the specific price movements and chart characteristics that define the pattern. Example: “The Double Bottom forms after a significant downtrend. It’s characterized by two distinct lows at roughly the same price level, with a peak in between. The neckline is formed by connecting the highs between the two lows.”
- `type`: (Required) Categorizes the pattern as either 'Continuation' or 'Reversal'. Continuation patterns suggest the existing trend will continue, while reversal patterns suggest a change in trend. Example: `Reversal`
- `bullish_bearish`: (Required) Indicates whether the pattern is bullish (suggests a price increase) or bearish (suggests a price decrease). Example: `Bullish`
- `reliability`: (Required) An assessment of the pattern's reliability, typically expressed as 'High', 'Medium', or 'Low'. Higher reliability indicates a greater probability of the predicted outcome. Example: `Medium`
- `common_occurrences`: (Optional) Describes the market conditions where the pattern is most commonly observed. Example: "Commonly seen after prolonged downtrends, especially in volatile markets."
- `indicators`: (Optional) Lists indicators that can be used to confirm the pattern. This can include MACD, RSI, Stochastic Oscillator, Volume, and others. Example: `MACD crossover, RSI divergence, increased volume on the breakout.`
- `breakout_confirmation`: (Optional) Details the criteria for confirming the pattern's breakout. This often involves price moving above or below a key level (e.g., the neckline). Example: "Price closing above the neckline with increased volume."
- `false_signals`: (Optional) Describes potential false signals or scenarios where the pattern may fail to produce the expected outcome. Example: "False breakouts can occur if volume is low or if the breakout is quickly reversed."
- `trading_tips`: (Optional) Provides practical trading tips related to the pattern. Example: "Consider entering a long position after a confirmed breakout above the neckline. Set a stop-loss order below the neckline."
- `related_patterns`: (Optional) Links to other related patterns within the wiki. Use internal links. Example: `Triple Bottom, Rounding Bottom`
- `see_also`: (Optional) Links to other relevant articles within the wiki. Example: `Candlestick patterns, Chart patterns`
How to Use the Template
1. **Create a New Article:** Start a new wiki page for the pattern you want to document. 2. **Insert the Template:** At the beginning of the article, insert the following code:
