Stock Market Mentor Amit Seth Lists Steps to Identify Next big Opportunity.

By S JHA

Mumbai, December 8, 2025 — Stock mentor Amit Seth has counselled traders to study line charts to find the next big opportunity in the Indian equity market. His post triggered a wave of interest among retail traders after sharing a simple but powerful charting tip: switch to line charts to spot continuation patterns, then return to candlesticks for entries and exits.

Alongside a graphic showing key continuation patterns — ascending and descending triangles, rising and falling wedges, bullish and bearish flags, and symmetrical triangles — Seth argued that line charts remove market “noise” caused by intraday volatility. This, he says, makes it far easier for traders to identify trend-continuation structures that often decide whether a rally extends or a sell-off deepens.

“If you draw line charts instead of candlesticks, it removes noise and it is easier to spot these patterns. Again, after spotting these patterns you can switch from line to candlesticks,” Seth advised.

Why Line Charts Help

Line charts plot only closing prices, offering a clean, uncluttered look at market direction. For beginners especially, spotting higher lows, lower highs, or breakout points becomes simpler without candlestick wicks that exaggerate volatility.

The Patterns to Watch

The shared graphic highlights classic continuation patterns used globally by technical analysts:

Ascending/Descending Triangles: Indicate bullish or bearish continuation depending on breakout direction.
Rising/Falling Wedges: Typically signal trend exhaustion and impending breakout.
Bullish/Bearish Flags: Short pauses in strong trends before momentum resumes.
Symmetrical Triangles: Show consolidation before a sharp move.

Each of these patterns includes standard rules for entry, stop-loss, and target planning, making them favourites among short-term traders.

Why It Matters for Traders

With retail participation in equities surging, simple rule-based methods are becoming essential. Seth’s tip resonates because it removes complexity from technical analysis, helping traders avoid overthinking and focus on core price structure.

The takeaway: identify patterns using line charts, then switch to candlesticks for precision entries. A cleaner workflow — and potentially cleaner trades.
