The rare “Broadening Top” pattern
The broadening top pattern that has formed on the Australian Stock index called the “Spy” is a rare pattern. The pattern is discussed in both “Trade what you see” (Leslie Jouflas) and “Profits in the Stock Market” (H.M. Gartley). In discussing the pattern Gartley says “…Fluctuations grow increasingly sharp as profit-glutted speculators grow more reckless in pushing their favorites. Quite possibly, well informed selling is completed chiefly in the early part of the broadening formation, and the later stages find (probably less experienced) trading their favorite stocks in wild swings which attract increasing less demand”. This is a good explanation of the psychology that is going on within this pattern and this quote also speaks to the “rotation” of professionals getting out of positions that are being absorbed by novice investors. The weekly chart of the Spy shows that 5 point required to complete the pattern and the subsequent breakout to the downside this past trading week.

I in addition to my pals were actually viewing the nice points located on your web blog and then immediately got a horrible feeling I had not expressed respect to the site owner for those techniques. The young boys are already absolutely glad to learn them and already have in reality been using those things. Appreciate your getting considerably helpful and also for having some essential resources millions of individuals are really desperate to be aware of. My very own honest apologies for not expressing gratitude to earlier.
