6 classic TA patterns forming across major crypto today, each with its textbook measured-move target and invalidation level. Head & shoulders, double tops/bottoms and more on the 1-hour chart.
These are the textbook chart patterns forming across major crypto right now (July 23, 2026, 1-hour timeframe). Each one comes with its measured-move target — the classic projection traders watch — plus the level that invalidates it. We found 6 setups today: 3 bullish, 3 bearish. Not financial advice — patterns fail as often as they work.
$ARB is carving a triple top — three pushes into the same resistance that all got rejected, a stronger reversal tell than a double because the level held three times. The neckline sits at $0.085; a break and hold below it projects a measured target of $0.078 (-12.9% from $0.090). Invalidated on a close back above $0.093. The pattern is still forming — it needs a decisive break to activate.
$XRP is carving a triple top — three pushes into the same resistance that all got rejected, a stronger reversal tell than a double because the level held three times. The neckline sits at $1.11; a break and hold below it projects a measured target of $1.04 (-8.8% from $1.14). Invalidated on a close back above $1.18. The pattern is still forming — it needs a decisive break to activate.
$ETH is carving a double bottom — two tests of support near the same level that both held, with the neckline (the bounce high) at $1.83K. The measured move projects $1.94K (+0.4% from $1.93K) on a breakout above the neckline. A close back below $1.73K invalidates it. The level has broken — the measured move is now in play.
$BNB just printed a golden cross — the 50-period moving average crossing up through the 200, a signal many read as a shift into a bullish regime. The 200-MA near $573 is the line bulls want to defend.
$APT is forming a descending triangle — a flat support floor with lower highs pressing down on it, usually a bearish continuation as sellers tighten the screws. A break below $0.578 projects $0.507 (-18.3% from $0.620). Invalidated on a push back above $0.638. The pattern is still forming — it needs a decisive break to activate.
$ATOM is carving a double bottom — two tests of support near the same level that both held, with the neckline (the bounce high) at $1.53. The measured move projects $1.61 (+10.9% from $1.45) on a breakout above the neckline. A close back below $1.44 invalidates it. The pattern is still forming — it needs a decisive break to activate.
Measured-move targets are a charting convention, not a prediction — they work partly because so many traders watch the same levels. Always pair them with the invalidation level and your own risk management.
