S&P 500 Breaks Out of Its Pattern of Lower Highs -- What's It Mean?

Of significance to many traders, particularly swing traders or those who focus heavily on price action analysis, is whether a market has a pattern of falling highs or rising highs -- this can indicate the trend and its strength.


Observe the highlighted regions in the chart above. The first two, in orange, show a pattern of lower highs. Bears may have interpreted this as a sign of bearishness -- and thus justification for closing out long positions and/or initiating short positions -- though the third highlighted region, in yellow, does not fit the pattern; it shows a high that is above the second highlighted region's high. This gives the bulls some justification in thinking that the current upwards trend is not over just yet.
