Important top and bottom chart signs

For the top signs, make sure that the price can immediately drop for a measurable amount after you sell.

• double heads M pattern
• V pattern bottom line is broken down with new lower low
• divergence for the top
• Wait to sell at about or above the V pattern bottom line, when the price is in a UP wave

For the bottoms signs, make sure that the price can immediately climb up for a measurable amount after you buy.

• double or multiple bottom W pattern
• /\ (the reversal V) pattern top line is broken out with new high higher
• divergence for the bottom
• wait to buy at about or below the /\ pattern top line, when the price is in a DOWN wave

The KEY is to buy a stock when it is at the end of a DOWN wave, and to sell a stock when it is at the end of a UP wave.
