Example: Bullish Reversal with Reverse QM
Chart: 15-minute GBP/USD
During a downtrend, the QM Pattern Indicator spots a Reverse QM pattern using ZigZag structure recognition. The indicator draws this pattern in red for quick visual identification. Once the neckline is broken, a bullish breakout follows, marking a strong potential entry signal.
This pattern typically occurs:
- After a lower low fails to continue
- When the market structure shifts from bearish to bullish
- Near institutional demand zones
Example: Bearish QM Pattern in USD/CHF
Chart: 15-minute USD/CHF
In this case, the market forms a series of higher highs and lows, signaling an overextended uptrend. The QM Indicator identifies a standard QM pattern, shown in blue. After the neckline is broken, the price sharply declines, confirming a bearish shift in structure.
This kind of pattern often forms:
- After liquidity grabs
- At supply zones
- Just before a large downward move (Change of Character – CHoCH)
