Double The Top/Bottom, Double The Fun| KOL Forex Analysis•Jay Tun

Traders get excited when they see this chart pattern. The double top and double bottom chart patterns appear infrequently. But when they do appear, seize them and you will be handsomely rewarded.

Discover how you can profit from this chart pattern through this case study on EURUSD.

Cause

Double top: The bulls are out to push prices into new highs.

Double bottom: The bulls are out to push prices into new lows.

Spot It Right

A double top/bottom can form in a matter of minutes if you look at the 1 minute or 5 minutes chart. It can also take several weeks for the pattern to form if you are looking at the daily or weekly charts.

A double top includes:

· 2 peaks which form a M

· Peaks may not form at the same price

· More tops may even be formed

A double bottom includes:

· 2 troughs which form a W

· Troughs may not form at the same price

· More tops may even be formed

Give yourself some leeway because charting is both an art and science.

What Happens At The Top/Bottom？

A double top indicates that market participants remained bullish at the first retracement from the top.

Hence, there is a second bullish move to test the high (which was set previously).

The high gets tested and remains intact. The bulls have lost steam; they are exhausted. The bears take charge from there.

It is the direct opposite for the double bottom.

Market participants are bearish at the first retracement from the bottom.

This leads to a second bearish move to test the low (which was set previously).

The low gets tested and remains intact. The bears are exhausted and the bulls take charge from there.
