Bullish Double Bottom Pattern Tutorial: 4/8 Bullish PatternsGive me the description for a bullish double-bottom
A bullish double bottom is a powerful reversal chart pattern that signals the potential end of a downtrend and the beginning of an upward trend. Here’s how it forms:
Two Troughs: The pattern starts with a significant price decline, forming a low (the first bottom). The price then rebounds to create a peak (the middle of the "W" shape) but soon declines again to form a second bottom roughly at the same price level as the first bottom. This double bottom resembles the letter "W."
Neckline: The horizontal line that connects the peak of the middle rebound is called the neckline. This is a key resistance level that the price needs to break through to confirm the pattern.
Breakout: A breakout above the neckline, typically accompanied by increased volume, confirms the double bottom pattern and signals a potential trend reversal from bearish to bullish.
Price Target: The estimated price target for the upward move is usually determined by measuring the distance from the bottoms to the neckline and projecting this distance upwards from the point of breakout.
Traders view the double bottom as a strong indication that the previous downtrend has exhausted and the bulls are gaining control, leading to a potential significant upward movement.

How to Find Legitimate Double Tops & Double BottomsHey Guys!
I just wanted to post a quick tutorial on how to find legitimate double tops and bottoms.
In this lesson, I explain the 4 rules that a double top/bottom must abide for it to be legitimate.
So for example: For a legitimate double bottom:
#1 The 2nd bottom's price must reach the 1st bottom's wick low price level.
#2 The 2nd bottom's price cannot close past the 1st bottom's wick low price level.
#3 There must at least be a 10 candle range between the the bottoms. (including the 2 bottom's candles)
#4 The prior trend must be in the opposing direction. (which is down in the case of a double bottom)
That's it! I hope this helps!
Have a great day!
Ken
