Price Action (PA)

Price Action is simply the movement of prices on a chart; the art of Price Action Analysis is recognizing patterns of potential profit.

It includes all facets of the stock or futures price including sometimes volume - even though some traders would argue that is semantically not accurate.

Price Action is highly subjective. What one trader interprets as a pattern from another trader may consider noise. Price action can be visualized in common patterns and setups such as the 123 Reversal or the shooting star.
