Reversal

A change in the overall direction of a price trend, from upward to downward or vice versa. Reversals can be identified through technical patterns, indicators, and changes in market sentiment.

Example

After a prolonged downtrend, Bitcoin printed a double bottom at $16,000 followed by a break above the neckline, signaling a bullish reversal that kicked off the next rally.
