Market Radar Pattern Variant
Descending Triangle Continuation
A descending triangle continuation candidate appears when price repeatedly tests support while lower highs show supply inside bearish context.

Descending triangle context
A descending triangle continuation candidate appears when support is tested repeatedly while rallies form lower highs. In bearish context, that can show supply pressing price toward a breakdown area.
The scanner evaluates whether the prior trend is weak enough for the continuation interpretation to make sense.
- Horizontal support
- Lower highs
- Bearish or weak prior context
- Breakdown reference below support
What weakens the candidate
A reclaim of falling resistance, strong support rejection upward, or disappearance of the downtrend context weakens the bearish continuation read.
The method is still a watchlist framework, not a direct bearish call.
Detection Focus

Market Radar treats pattern names as context-dependent watchlist candidates. Direction, trend context, compression quality, trigger clarity, and invalidation are evaluated together.
