This is my classroom and you guys are my teachers. I seem to have more questions than answers. I have heard it mentioned, and I concur, that the market for stocks is more about perceptions than reality. And I think the term "relationships" needs to be added to the mix - the relationship between trend lines; the relationship between certain stocks: which stocks move in concert and which are antithetical; and the effect of certain kinds of news and external pressures. And I know I am stepping in it by seguing right into a "double bottom," but I want to know if we now have had one and we can move forward. (I can't believe I am embracing a double bottom!) Back to the stock market: What is the relationship between double bottoms and trends? Are double bottoms just a thing that is? Why are double bottoms normal, or important? Why is there sometimes a triple bottom? Thanks for the lesson - I appreciate it a lot.
