Most traders have biases.
When I started out, I could only see bear moves and got slaughtered in the process.
That's been cured.
However it would be interesting to invert a chart to see if one still had a direction bias.
I believe this could be particularly effective on currency pairs for the obvious reason
that a bear move for one is a bull move for the other.
Does anybody know if charts can be inverted?

depending on your software you could put in the inverted pair, most sb software wont do this,if you particularly want to see anything let me know ill post the chart
 
I've seen this done on YouTube clips so I know it is possible with the right software.

However, inverting the chart pattern does not give the equivalent insight into market sentiment / psychology, the factors that cause prices to go down are different and not simply the inverse of those that make them go up, so market behaviour and outcomes will not be directly transferrable.
 
is this what you mean
