How To Trade Blog: Fixed Time Trading With The Double Top Pattern Strategy

In this article, I will introduce to you how to open effective Fixed Time orders in Olymp Trade based on the signals of the Double Top pattern trading strategy. This is a pattern that is often used a lot in Forex trading. However, in Olymp Trade, you can completely use it to find exact Fixed Time transactions with small time frames.

What is a Double Top pattern?

If you have ever learned and traded Forex, perhaps the Double Top pattern is no stranger to you. This is one of the most popular reversal patterns in Forex. And if you have never known this pattern, we will learn a bit about it together.

A Double Top pattern is a type of reversal pattern from bullish to bearish. This pattern shapes like two equal mountains so it is called the Double Top pattern. The horizontal line connecting the bottoms of the pattern is called the neckline. This line acts as price support. When the price breaks out of it, the pattern is confirmed and the price will drop sharply afterward.

In trading, Double Top is favored by traders because it is easy to recognize and offers very accurate reversal signals. In some cases, after breaking out of the support level, the price may return to retest before plummeting. This is also a very good entry point for opening a DOWN order that you can take.

I have already had a detailed article on this pattern. If you want to learn more about the Double Top pattern, you can review it here:
