Interpretation of Head and Shoulders

Once the pattern is formed and the price falls below the neckline or support level (plus a certain deviation is possible), investors get a sell signal. The expectation is that the decline will continue, although prices may rebound to the neckline, considered now a resistance, but generally stop around it.

Target price

Following head and shoulders pattern formation the price is generally believed to drop at least to its target level, calculated as follows:

T = N – (H – N),
		Where:
		

T – target level;

N – neckline level (initial support);

H – pattern’s head level (highest top).
