📖 What a rising wedge is

Both the highs and the lows are rising, but the lows are rising faster than the highs, so the channel narrows as it climbs.

Why it forms

Each push up makes less progress than the last while dips get shallower — the classic signature of buying that is getting more reluctant and more crowded at once. The trend is still up, but its quality is deteriorating.

🎯 Trigger

A close below the rising lower boundary.

📏 Target

Project the height of the wedge at its widest down from the break. Wedges often retrace the whole move that built them.

🛑 Invalidation

A decisive close above the upper boundary, which turns the wedge into an ordinary acceleration.

APOLLOHOSP — Daily

Forming
APOLLOHOSP rising wedge pattern on daily candles, with the pattern boundaries and breakout level drawn
The shaded band is the formation. On tops and bottoms the indigo line traces the shape itself — up into the left shoulder, over the head, and away from the right — and the dashed line is the neckline it has to break; on triangles, wedges and channels the two solid boundaries are the pattern. Triangle markers are the swing highs and lows those lines were fitted through, and the dash-dot line is the measured-move target once the pattern has broken.
❓ Rising Wedge FAQ
Is a rising wedge bullish or bearish?
Bearish, which surprises people because price is going up inside it. The signal is in the narrowing, not the direction: smaller and smaller advances say the trend is tiring.
What is the difference between a rising wedge and an ascending channel?
A channel's boundaries stay parallel; a wedge's converge. A rising channel is a healthy trend. A rising wedge is a trend losing momentum, and they are traded in opposite directions.
Where do rising wedges appear?
Both at the end of an uptrend, where they are reversal signals, and inside a downtrend as a bear-market rally, where they signal the rally is ending.

How these are found: swing highs and lows are picked out with a percentage ZigZag on daily and weekly candles, and the boundaries are line-fitted through those swings. A formation is only published when the fit is tight, the boundaries are actually touched several times, and the price action stays inside them. The most recent swing is provisional, so a forming pattern can still change shape on the next candle, and patterns whose break already played out are dropped rather than shown as fresh.
