Stock Market Help: Playing Double Bottoms and Double Tops
Stop losing to professional traders in the stock market when double tops and double bottoms form. Keep reading to discover how you can make thousands of dollars when double tops and double bottoms form.
Every rally in the stock market reaches a point where enough bulls look at it and say"I've made a lot of money, and I might make even more money, but Id rather take my profits off the table. Charts top out when enough bulls take their profits, while the money from new bulls is not enough to replace what was taken out.
Traders who just bought the stock are pissed off because they came to late. They are trapped, sometimes even in a Bearish Island Reversal. Should they just stay in the stock and hope it comes back or sell for a loss? Well, the stock will keep dropping until enough bulls decide that the stock has over extended itself on the downside. So as more and more of these bulls step in, the stock begins to rise and the rally continues. Now when the stock finally rises back up to its previous high, you can expect sell orders to hit the market as those who were trapped exit their positions.
There are always those traders who were trapped in the previous reversal and now they have sworn to their gods to jump out if the market would just give them another chance by rising to its old high.
A mirror image of this situation occurs in the stock market at market bottoms. The market falls to a new low at which enough bears start taking profits by covering shorts and the market rallies. Once that rally stalls out and prices start sinking again, all eyes are on the previous low-will it hold? If bears are stronger than bulls, prices will break below the first low, and the downtrend will continue. If bears are weaker than bulls, the decline will stop near the old low, creating a double bottom. Technical indicators help decipher which of the two is more likely to happen.
Any time you see a stock rise to its previous peak, the main question in your mind should be will it rise to a new high or form a double top and turn down. Technical indicators like volume, MACD, RSI, and stochastics can be a great help in answering this question.
If a stock climbs to its previous high, if the volume, MACD, and stochastics are dropping then a double top is likely to form.
Whenever a stock falls to its previous low, it is likely a double bottom will form if the volume and MACD start climbing. - 23218
