Price Patterns

Double Tops and Bottoms

A double top occurs when prices rise to a resistance level on significant volume, retreat, and subsequently return to the resistance level on decreased volume.  Prices then decline marking the beginning of a new down-trend.


A double bottom has the same characteristics as a double top except it is upside-down.
