📊 How to: The Double Bottom Pattern📍 What is the Double Bottom Pattern? The double bottom pattern is a trend reversal pattern observed on charts, such as bar and Japanese candlestick charts. Similar to the double top pattern, it consists of two bottom levels near a support line called the neckline. The pattern indicates the end of a downtrend and is confirmed by two failed attempts to break the support level. As a bullish reversal pattern, it signifies a shift in momentum and is commonly used by traders to enter long buying positions. 📍 How to Identify In general, it is fairly simple to identify a double bottom pattern on a trading chart. This pattern can be identified when the price retests the support line and rises up again above the neckline. As a tip, you can usually identify the pattern as a “W” letter formation. 💥 Key Takeaways The double bottom pattern is a bearish momentum reversal resembling the letter W. It requires three main elements: first low, second low, and a clear neckline to identify the formation. The pattern is more effective at the end of a strong downtrend rather than in a ranging market. Drawing a support level and a neckline is necessary to trade this pattern. Confirming the pattern with other technical analysis tools like moving averages, RSI, Fibonacci retracement level, and MACD is important. The recommended approach to trading the double bottom pattern is to wait for the price to break the neckline with a stop-loss order and assess the risk-reward ratio. 👤 @QuantVue 📅 Daily Ideas about market update, psychology & indicators ❤️ If you appreciate our work, please like, comment and follow ❤️

Double Tops & Bottoms - Advanced Analysis | EducationalNo chart pattern is more common in trading than the double bottom or double top. This pattern appears so often that it alone may serve as proof positive that price action is not as wildly random as many Traders claim. Price charts simply express trader sentiments, demand, and supply, so the double tops and double bottoms represent a retesting of temporary extremes. If prices were truly random, why do they pause so frequently at just those points? To traders, the answer is that many participants are making their stand at those clearly demarcated levels. 1. Double Tops Double tops are a bearish pattern commonly found in uptrends and characterized by two consecutive peaks located at an approximately similar level, separated by a trough. Here we can see a good example of a Double Top in GBP/USD in August 2022, in the recent past. The Price forms a "V shape" as a Double Top, then there is a breakout of the confirmation Line, we can call this also a " Neckline " for a continuation of the price. 2. Double Bottoms Double bottoms are a bullish pattern commonly found in downtrends and characterized by two consecutive troughs located at an approximately similar level, separated by a peak. The Double Bottom is always formed by a V shape, the figure it's just a Mirrored shape of the Double Top. Also for the Double Bottom, there is a breakout confirmation Line. 3. Take Profits For double tops, the take profit is determined from the height Peak to the trough. This measurement will be copied from the confirmation line ( breakout )to below. For double bottoms, the take profit is determined from the lowest trough to the peak. This measurement will be copied from the confirmation line ( breakout ) to the upper.r.

Double Tops & Bottoms - Advanced AnalysisDouble tops/bottoms are relatively frequent and easy formations to identify and use. In this post, we provide a description of each pattern, implications, respective measure rule, as well as the variations described by Bulkowski. We also review the literature on these patterns in order to find various observations as well as a theoretical explanation of their occurrence. 1. Double Tops Double tops are a bearish pattern commonly found in uptrends and characterized by two consecutive peaks located at a similar level, separated by a trough. Bulkowski suggests that the absolute relative distance between the two peaks should be within 6%. The first peak is followed by a 10/20% decline. The location of the trough in the formation forms the "confirmation" level. The price breaking this level signifies the completion of the pattern, and a short position should be opened. In order to avoid fake breakouts, Bulkowski suggests a 5% decline below the confirmation level. Volume is generally declining during the formation of a double top. The time separating two peaks is an important factor when it comes to determining the validity of a potential double top. This separation should be in accordance with the duration of the uptrend before the peaks. Peaks that are too close to each other are not indicative of a double top, while an excessive time separation might indicate that the prior uptrend is outdated. Double top on OIA daily. 2. Double Bottoms Double bottoms are a bullish pattern commonly found in downtrends and characterized by two consecutive troughs located at a similar level, separated by a peak. Bulkowski suggests that the absolute relative distance between the two troughs should be within 6%. The first trough is followed by a 10/20% rise. The location of the peak in the formation forms the "confirmation" level, the price breaking this level signifies the completion of the pattern, and a long position should be opened. In order to avoid fake breakouts, Bulkowski suggests a 5% decline above the confirmation level. Volume is generally declining during the formation of a double bottom. Like with double tops, the time separation between two troughs should be in accordance with the duration of the downtrend prior to the troughs. The observations on the matter previously described for double tops also apply to double bottoms. Double bottom on CFFN daily. 3. Measure Rule The measure rule allows for the determination of the amplitude for the expected price move after a breakout of the confirmation line. This also allows for the trader to decide the location of take-profits/stop-losses when trading double top/double bottom patterns. For double tops, the take profit is determined from the height given by subtracting the formation highest peak with the trough. The height is then subtracted from the formation trough. For double bottoms, the take profit is determined from the height given by subtracting the formation peak with the lowest trough. The height is then added to the formation peak. Another rule suggests an expected price movement after breakout equal to 73% of the distance between the formation highest peak and the formation lowest low. 4. Eve/Adam Variations Bulkowski classifies double tops and double bottoms into four distinct types: - Adam & Adam - Adam & Eve - Eve & Adam - Eve & Eve The term Adam and Eve is given to peaks/troughs depending on their width, with the term Adam given to narrow (V-shaped) peaks/troughs and the term Eve given to wider (U-shaped) peaks/troughs. There aren't large scale studies quantifying the accuracy of each of these variations, Bulkowski ranks each one of them as follows (lower is better) (1): For double tops: - Adam & Adam: 19 out of 36 - Adam & Eve: 10 out of 36 - Eve & Adam: 16 out of 36 - Eve & Eve: 12 out of 36 For double bottoms: - Adam & Adam: 26 out of 39 - Adam & Eve: 17 out of 39 - Eve & Adam: 20 out of 39 - Eve & Eve: 5 out of 39 Note that such classification is not always used by traders.

The analysis conducted by Caginalp and Balevonich shows that double formations can be the consequence of identical equilibrium prices with slightly differing undervaluation (2). 6.

Definition The double bottom usually occurs when price is in the downtrend and bounced off some level (First bottom). After this bounce it seems that the price is going to fall down, but bounces off this level again (Second bottom). If the price reached the neck line (purple line), the probability of the trend reverse is high. How to trade with double bottom? You need to specify that price now is in downtrend. After the double bottom is formed, you can wait the price and neck line crossover and enter a long position with some stoploss to eliminate the possible downtrend continuation. Be careful to sole use this pattern, in case of trend reverse it is also confirmed by technical indicators, which we will examine in next posts. Summary 1)To wait the full double bottom pattern formed 2)To entry a position on the price and neckline crossover 3)To take a stoploss for the downtrend continuation
