A Question About Risk

* Bob Iaccino is a chief market strategist and co-founder of Path Trading Partners. He joins us live every Thursday from 11 AM ET, as our Risk Management educator.

What are some key points of double top and bottom patterns?


Some key points are as follows:

  • A double bottom looks like the letter "W," while a double top looks like the letter "M."
  • A double bottom consists of two lows, and those lows do not have to be equal.
  • A double top consists of two highs, and those highs do not have to be equal.
  • A double bottom reverses a downtrend, and a double top reverses an uptrend. Both patterns must show a clear rotation to be considered valid.

What is the "sweet spot" in double tops and bottoms?

The sweet spot refers to the retracement level of the right-hand low in a double bottom or the right-hand high in a double top. For a double top, the right side must retrace at least 76.4% of the left-side swing, from the swing high to the swing low that formed the "V" of the "M" pattern.

Additionally, the same right-side high must not touch or exceed the 123.6% extension of the left-side move, from the swing high to the base. Simply put, the right-side high should fall between the 76.4% retracement and the 123.6% extension of the left-side move.
