Chart Patterns

Double Top

Pattern Description:

The double top is a major reversal pattern that forms after an extended uptrend. The pattern is made up of two consecutive peaks that are roughly equal, with a moderate trough in-between. As illustrated below, a double top consists of two well-defined, sharp peaks at approximately the same price level. A double top occurs when prices are in an uptrend. Prices rise to a resistance level, retreat, return to the resistance level again before declining. The two peaks should be distinct and sharp. The pattern is complete when prices decline below the lowest low in the formation. The lowest low is called the confirmation point.

Technical Review

Royal Bank of Canada - the air is getting thin up here.

2026-01-23 by Tim Straiton

Current price is $168.86 and 15% above its 40 week moving average. There are a number of reasons why one should look to secure profits on long positions here.

The weekly choppiness index at 33 suggests that a bout of panic buying or short covering has recently taken place. Furthermore, the  MACD-V level of +224 stands at a multi-year high. The Fibonacci 78.6% upside projection target of $174.32, based on the $49.55 to $119.41 range traded between March 2020 and January 2022 has recently been reached and rejected.
