What Is A Rising Wedge, and How Does It Look?

A rising wedge is a bearish chart pattern formed by two trend lines intersecting in the center. The trend lines climb to meet one another.

The first trend line connects the most recent lower highs and higher highs, while the second connects the most recent lows. The formed shape resembles an up-angled triangle. A rising wedge pattern is a falling wedge pattern.

Because the low is higher than the high and the lower trend line is steeper than the upper, the rising wedge pattern could be interpreted as a bearish wedge.

Even if the falling wedges have a similar shape, the only thing that distinguishes them is the angle of the triangle and the pattern.

The rising wedge (ascending) pattern, which predicts future falling prices or a breakout to a downtrend, is a bearish pattern.

Despite the wedge capturing the price action continuing higher, trade volume reductions may imply that sellers are consolidating their position in anticipation for a bearish breakout.

In contrast, the falling wedge (descending) pattern has a negative slope, slanting downward and predicting a nearby rebound, making it a bullish pattern.

The intriguing part is that a rising wedge can emerge as a continuation pattern during a downturn or as a reversal pattern during an uptrend.

How Do Rising Wedges Look?

When two trend lines connect, the rising wedge pattern takes on the appearance of a pizza slice. The rising wedge pattern is characterized by a series of higher highs and lower lows.

The pattern's extreme high points must be covered by the resistance trend line. The resistance line necessitates at least two higher highs.

Construct a support trend line that includes the higher lows. At least two swing lows are required to draw the support trend line.

After you've drawn the resistance and support trend lines, you should see a triangular shape that looks like a wedge. In the rising wedge design, the peak of the triangle must point upward.

As a result, the resistance trend line must slope upward in order for this to be classified as a rising wedge pattern.

Even though it can be difficult to spot in real time, the rising wedge pattern is popular among traders and technical analysts.

The rising wedge pattern, which is a reversal formation, is frequently confused with the triangle pattern, which is a continuation formation.

The ascending wedge pattern's obvious entry and exit indications make the rising wedge pattern an excellent choice for traders who want to short the market or use the signals to manage their long-term HODL positions.

North Korean hackers are using almost 500 phishing domains to steal NFTs.

The hackers made fake websites that looked like NFT projects, NFT marketplaces, and even a DeFi platform. Hackers with ties to North Korea's Lazarus Group are said to be behind a massive phishing campaign that targets investors in nonfungible tokens (NFTs). The campaign uses nearly 500 phishing domains to trick people into giving away their personal information. SlowMist, a blockchain security company, released a report on December 24 that showed the methods that North Korean Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) groups have used to trick NFT investors out of their NFTs. These methods include putting up fake websites that look like different platforms and projects related to NFTs. Some of these fake websites include one that pretends to be a World Cup project and others that try to look like popular NFT marketplaces like OpenSea, X2Y2, and Rarible. SlowMist said that one of the methods was for these fake websites to offer "malicious mints," which trick the victims into thinkin...

Brazil's Federal Revenue Requires Citizens To Pay Taxes On Crypto Trades

The Federal Revenue of Brazil wants investors to pay taxes on cryptocurrency trading profits, even if there is no exchange for Brazil's national currency. Brazil's Federal Reserve (RFB) has declared that Brazilian investors in the crypto-asset market must pay income tax on transactions that involve the like-kind exchange of cryptocurrencies; for example, Bitcoin (BTC) for Ethereum (ETH). The RFB's declaration was published in the Diário Oficial da União and was the result of a consultation made by a citizen of the country with the regulator. At the end of last year, the group issued an opinion in which it claimed that trading between cryptocurrency pairs is taxable even if there is no conversion to the real (Brazil's national currency). Although it does not specify what can be understood as "profit," since in the exchange of one crypto asset for another there is no capital gain in fiat currency, it points out that there is, even so, the obligation to pay t...
