The head and shoulders is one of the most reliable topping patterns. A central peak (head) flanked by two lower peaks (shoulders) with a neckline connecting the troughs. Breakdown below the neckline signals trend reversal.
Short the breakdown below the neckline with a close below. Stop above the right shoulder. Target: height of the head above the neckline subtracted from the breakdown point.
