  • Higher highs and lower lows, indicating a market imbalance between buyers and sellers.
  • Generation of buy or sell signals when price candles decisively touch the upper or lower boundaries of the triangle.
  • Providing traders with confidence to enter long or short positions, optimizing trade timing and strategy.
  • Being particularly useful for technical analysis and identifying changes in market structure.
