What is a reversal trading strategy?

What Is a Reversal Trading Strategy?
A reversal trading strategy is a trading approach that aims to identify and profit from points where a prevailing trend is about to change direction. Instead of following the trend (trend trading), reversal traders look for signs that the current upward (bullish) or downward (bearish) move is exhausting, and a new trend in the opposite direction is beginning.
Key Characteristics
Focus on Turning Points: Traders enter positions at potential tops (sell/short) or bottoms (buy/long).
High Risk, High Reward: Reversals can lead to significant profits if timed correctly, but false signals (whipsaws) are common—many "reversals" turn out to be temporary pullbacks.
Timeframes: Works on any (intraday for day traders, daily/weekly for swing/investors).
How to Identify Reversals
Common signals (often used in combination for confluence):
Price Patterns: Head and shoulders, double tops/bottoms, doji candles, pin bars.
Momentum Divergence: RSI or MACD showing weaker highs/lows while price makes new extremes.
Support/Resistance: Price rejecting key levels (previous...
