These stocks, Georgia Gulf Corp, PNM Resources, Inc, Teradyne Inc, Randgold Resources Limited, and United Microelectronics Corporation, have been showing multiple top patterns on April 7. Multiple tops are a reverse chart pattern where a stock is in a uptrend and hits a resistance level several times.After hitting resistance levels, the stock reverses and continues on a downward trend. As the stock is in a uptrend and hits the resistance level, the stock heads back down forming a swing top. As the downward trend loses steam, the stock heads back up again to the resistance level. This forms a top and when this happens more than 2 or 3 times its called a multiple top. Investors should pay attention to the resistance levels and should maybe consider shorting at these levels.
