Calculating measured move for a flag...

Discussion in 'Technical Analysis' started by Trend Fader, Apr 6, 2003.

  1. Just curious to know what different SWING traders use to measure flag patterns... Basic TA says that you measure the flag pattern to form a target after the price breaks out of the pattern.. its also known as a measured move...

    Do you measure from a previous breakout point to the top of the flag?

    Do you measure the high to low of the flag formation itself?

    Do you use % or points when calculating?

    Perhaps we can post some examples.. and see the different methods swing traders use to calculate the measured move of a flag...
