Chart Patterns

Triple Top

Pattern Description:

A triple top is used to predict the reversal of a prolonged uptrend. This pattern is identified when the price of an asset creates three peaks at nearly the same price level.

A break below support on high volume after the three tops have been formed is a reversal confirmation.

How to Take a Loss

by Brett N. Steenbarger, Ph.D.

Nvidia - From bull trend to no trend.

2025-08-21 by Tim Straiton

Nvidia closed on Tuesday 19th August at 175.64. The strong bull trend which started in early May 2025 appears to be showing signs of exhaustion as shown in the high value of the choppiness index (55) and also the relatively high value in the ATR/ Bollinger Bandwidth (33).

The Elasticity 2.0 trading system has continually generated profitable buy signals since early May 2025. The most recent buy signal on August 7th 2025 at 189.77 has a target exit at $194.77 and a stop loss at $171.36. It is currently showing a loss of 2.92%.

The 240 minute chart paints a rather negative picture with the rising trendline support level originating from April 2025 having been broken. The Chande Trendscore Indicator has turned bearish and the MACD-V indicator is about to rupture the Zero line to the downside.

It is too early to suggest that the bullish trend is Nvidia is history. Additional Fibonacci upside projection targets based on the recent $86.62 to 153.13 range traded between January and April 2025 are as follows:

$194.23 (61.8%)
$219.64 (100%)
$260.74 (161.8%)
