Attaching my marking on the chart.. Specially the first pattern. I see it as test of red line. Hence it is a variation of pattern II. Due to momentum price went above this, but during test of the breakout, it failed and price came back in the previous zone. As far as I see, Pattern III is continuation pattern, whereas Pattern II is reversal. (ofcourse I am assuming that on the left side of chart price showed a bullish trend. It could be very well that it showed downtrend, and we had 2 whipsaw around the redline. In that case, I will agree with marking it as pattern III).
Hope I am correct.
(This typically happens in first touch of important level where high momentum does take the price above the red line, and we don't see clear M pattern but a variation of it.).
To start with, I will suggest new traders to take Prev days High / Low as the RED line. If price has to show up-trend in daily timeframe (i.e. TF that big players are focuisng on), then we must see new high today ..and if it has to remain in range, then Prev Days high/low will act as boundry. During the day, most of the time price does test prev days range to test the mood of market participants today - Does majority want market to trend or they are not bothered hence let it remains in a range. If it has remain as range bound day, then we should see M or W pattern, else we should see break of PHOD/PLOD levels, then retracement to check if the breakout is accepted by all participants..and then continuation of move upward.
Is my suggestion OK or you have some other price level in mind.
Happy PA Trading.
