Short answer

An ascending triangle is typically viewed as a continuation pattern that forms when price makes a series of higher lows while repeatedly testing a roughly flat resistance level overhead. The rising lower trendline reflects increasingly eager buyers stepping in at higher prices, while the flat upper line marks a consistent supply level.

An ascending triangle is typically viewed as a continuation pattern that forms when price makes a series of higher lows while repeatedly testing a roughly flat resistance level overhead.

The rising lower trendline reflects increasingly eager buyers stepping in at higher prices, while the flat upper line marks a consistent supply level. The pattern is generally considered complete once price breaks decisively above the flat resistance line.
