What the rising wedge is

Price climbs inside two rising lines that squeeze together, then breaks down.

Imagine running up a path that keeps getting narrower, taking shorter and shorter steps. Sooner or later you slip. A rising wedge is price climbing between two rising lines that squeeze together, and here it slips out of the bottom.
