Technical analysis Wedge Pattern and MACD Indicator Limitations
$XPeng (XPEV.US)$ $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ Don't follow blindly someone who lack objectivity (or bias) in using Wedge Pattern and MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence) to analyse a stock.
Before you trade based on such 'professional and intimidating' chart, always understand their limitations and use in conjunction with other Technical analysis tools and the company's fundamental. The forecast which is based on past data can be misleading because it may be influenced by external factors such as changes in market sentiment, earnings and macroeconomic conditions.

Limitations of Wedge Patterns
1. Misinterpretation of Wedges
Wedge patterns can be subjective, and their identification may differ between traders. Differences in selecting highs and lows can lead to varying interpretations, resulting in differing trading decisions.
2. Dependence on Other Market Factors
While wedges can provide potent signals, their reliability is often influenced by other market factors such as economic news, company earnings, or changes in market sentiment. Therefore, traders should use wedges in conjunction with other technical analysis tools or fundamental analysis.
3. False Breakouts and Whipsaws
Wedge patterns can occasionally lead to false breakouts or whipsaws, where the price moves beyond a trend line but quickly reverse, leading to potential losses. It underscores the importance of setting stop losses and waiting for volume confirmation.
Limitations of MACD
1. Not suitable for consolidating market
MACD works best when a market is trending, rather than consolidating. In some cases, divergence can signal that a market reversal is on the horizon, but this never materializes. At the same time, when asset prices move sideways in a triangle pattern this can cause the MACD to trend closer to zero.
2. Easily misinterpreted
It’s also easy to misinterpret the results if you don’t have a solid understanding of basic moving averages. For all these reasons, it’s best to use the MACD indicator along with other types of analysis to form a more informed view of market fluctuations.

SpyderCall : Good post.
Always use all of the tools you have available. Combine the macro, fundamental, and technical data you have available to make a well-informed decision. And always be watchful for the right catalyst to appear near major long-term technical levels to sway price direction.
