I've noticed a stock price movement forming an M pattern and I'm wondering if this is considered a bullish sign. I want to know if the M pattern typically indicates a positive 
market trend or if it's just a random price fluctuation.

    Double tops and bottoms represent crucial technical analysis patterns in the trader's toolkit.

    A double top pattern forms when a stock's price reaches a high point twice, creating an 'M' shape on the chart. This formation often signals a potential bearish reversal in trend.

    Traders interpret the double top as a sign of resistance at a certain price level, with sellers outweighing buyers after the second peak.

    Conversely, a double bottom pattern emerges when a stock's price hits a low point twice, resulting in a 'W' shape on the chart. This formation is indicative of a potential bullish price movement.

    The double bottom signifies the presence of support at a specific price level, where buyers start to outnumber sellers after the second trough.
