Do you mean, imperfect as in the triangles are difficult to draw in real time?
Because that's what I am seeing... unless you initially drew the top red line off the double hook BO's and then moved it down...
The angles seem very large, it's that cause for imperfection?
Thanks for the visuals
A perfect triangle has channels that are full of price actions where as an imperfect triangle is mostly empty.
If you have the first hook and the second hook is more of a breakout...and if price returns to the general area of where the second hook should be (close in proximity to the first) then you can detect a triangle.
Not to get mystical, but I am looking at the "spirit" of the pattern & not so much the lines themselves.
I trade price action with horizontal lines but I try to understand price action with diagonal lines & fractal triangular patterns.
It is not as hard as it looks, learn the basic methods of spotting them and then learn to feel price action; not with your eyes, but with your heart.
