Chart Patterns
Supported Patterns
C1 AnalyzerPro supports 16 of the most common reversal and continuation price patterns. See appendix at the bottom with the full list.
Pattern Status - Emerging vs. Breakout
Price patterns go through an evolution. When detected they appear as “Emerging” in the Chart Control.
Once price breaks through a support/resistance line, its Status will change to “Breakout”. When this happens, you will see a target box for the breakout.
Breakout Pattern Example
Emerging Pattern Example
Volatility Analysis Study
The “Volatility Analysis” study shows where price might be within 1 hour, 4 hours and a single day.
Use these values to set reasonable expectation on where price might get to within a set time. These values are calculated using historic volatiltiy.
The targets on the chart are updated in real time and are relative to the Last price.
C1 Dashboard
Use the dashboard to quickly find available patterns.
When you add one of C1 studies to a chart, that market will appear in the C1 Dashboard.
The Dashboard can be accessed by right clicking any of the charts that have a C1 study on it.
The Dashboard shows all relevant and active chart patterns / key levels across all markets that C1 is applied to.
Dashboard is sorted by symbol and then by Interval.
Example C1 Dashboard showing 5 markets.
Timeframes and Intervals
The chart patterns and key levels are provided by Autochartist within 6 possible intervals: 15M, 30M, 1H, 4H and Daily.
It is not required to plot a pattern on its interval. for example, it is perfectly ok to plot a 1H pattern on a 5 min chart. In general users can plot the pattern on any chart type and timeframe such as range bars, renko, tick, volume, etc.
