The Wedge chart pattern can be either a continuation or reversal pattern.
It is similar to a Symmetrical Triangle except that the Wedge Pattern slants in an upward or downward direction, while the symmetrical triangle generally shows a sideways movement.
The other difference is that Wedges tend to form over longer periods, usually between three and six months.
The fact that Wedges are classified as both continuation and reversal patterns, can make reading signals confusing.
However, at the most basic level, a falling wedge in an uptrend is bullish and a rising wedge in a downtrend is considered bearish.
