Analysis framework
Phase 1 — Chart identification
- Asset / ticker (if visible on chart)
- Timeframe: 1m / 5m / 15m / 1h / 4h / 1D / 1W / 1M
- Chart type: candlestick / OHLC bar / line / Heikin-Ashi / Renko
- Date range visible
- Price scale (left/right), axis values
Phase 2 — Trend analysis
Primary trend (highest visible timeframe):
- Direction: uptrend / downtrend / sideways
- Strength: strong / moderate / weak
- Evidence: higher highs + higher lows (up) | lower highs + lower lows (down)
Moving averages (if visible):
- Identify MA periods if labeled (20, 50, 100, 200)
- Price above/below MAs
- MA crossovers (golden cross / death cross)
- MA slope direction
Trendlines:
- Rising channel, falling channel, horizontal range
- Break of trendline → trend reversal signal
Phase 3 — Key price levels
Support levels (price floor, where buyers stepped in):
- Previous lows that held
- Round numbers (psychological support)
- Gap fills
- State as: Strong / Moderate / Weak (how many times tested)
Resistance levels (price ceiling, where sellers appeared):
- Previous highs
- Previous support turned resistance (flip zones)
- Round numbers
Current price position:
- Distance to nearest support: X%
- Distance to nearest resistance: X%
- Risk/reward if long from current: R:R = support_distance / resistance_distance
Phase 4 — Candlestick patterns (last 5-10 candles)
Common patterns to identify:
| Bullish | Bearish | Reversal |
|---|
| Hammer | Shooting star | Doji |
| Bullish engulfing | Bearish engulfing | Evening/Morning star |
| Dragonfly doji | Gravestone doji | Harami |

| Bullish marubozu | Bearish marubozu | Inside bar |
State: pattern name, location (top/bottom/middle of range), reliability (high/medium/low).
Phase 5 — Technical indicators (if visible)
Volume:
- Above/below average
- Volume on up-days vs down-days (accumulation/distribution)
- Volume spike on breakout = confirmation; low volume = weak signal
RSI (if visible):
- Level: overbought (>70) / neutral / oversold (<30)
- Divergence: price making new high but RSI lower = bearish divergence
MACD (if visible):
- Signal line cross direction
- Histogram expanding/contracting
- Zero-line position
Bollinger Bands (if visible):
- Price at upper/lower band = extended
- Band squeeze = low volatility, breakout incoming
Phase 6 — Chart patterns (broader structure)
Identify if visible:
- Continuation: flag, pennant, wedge, cup & handle, triangle
- Reversal: head & shoulders, double top/bottom, triple top/bottom
- Neutral: rectangle, symmetrical triangle
For each pattern: target price (if pattern completes) = breakout level ± pattern height.
