📖 What a double top is

Price makes a high, pulls back, rallies to almost exactly the same high and fails again. The low between the two peaks is the neckline.

Why it forms

The second failure tells everyone who bought the first peak that the price is not going through. Their exit is what breaks the neckline.

🎯 Trigger

A close below the neckline — the low between the two peaks. Until that happens it is just a pullback.

📏 Target

Measure from the peaks down to the neckline and project that distance below the neckline.

🛑 Invalidation

A close above the twin peaks, which turns the whole thing into a base rather than a top.

BANKBARODA — Weekly

Broken down ↓
BANKBARODA double top pattern on weekly candles, with the pattern boundaries and breakout level drawn
The shaded band is the formation. On tops and bottoms the indigo line traces the shape itself — up into the left shoulder, over the head, and away from the right — and the dashed line is the neckline it has to break; on triangles, wedges and channels the two solid boundaries are the pattern. Triangle markers are the swing highs and lows those lines were fitted through, and the dash-dot line is the measured-move target once the pattern has broken.
❓ Double Top FAQ
What does a double top mean?
That a price level has now rejected the stock twice. It is a bearish reversal signal, but only after the neckline breaks — many double tops never complete.
How far apart should the two tops be?
Far enough to be separate events — typically several weeks on a daily chart — and within a few percent of each other in price. Two highs a few days apart are one top, not two.
Is a double top reliable?
It is one of the more reliable reversal patterns once the neckline breaks on volume. Trading it before the break has a much poorer record, because the second peak is often exceeded.

How these are found: swing highs and lows are picked out with a percentage ZigZag on daily and weekly candles, and the boundaries are line-fitted through those swings. A formation is only published when the fit is tight, the boundaries are actually touched several times, and the price action stays inside them. The most recent swing is provisional, so a forming pattern can still change shape on the next candle, and patterns whose break already played out are dropped rather than shown as fresh. Levels and targets are the textbook measured moves, not forecasts. This is auto-generated market data, not investment advice.
