Quote from marketsurfer:
good point RR. hence the nebulous and slippery nature of pattern TA--if it goes up the technicians will say W Bottom, if it goes down---clearly a Triple Top.
Seriously, I believe it depends on where in the cycle these patterns form-- at the all time high--- I tend to believe its a Triple Top--- at the lower range it would be a W bottom---- perhaps a TA practicer could shed some light as to what is the generally accepted understanding. thanks!

Thanks I had forgotten...its sort of like a topping tail & bottoming tail..more important when we are at a top and bottom respectively.
