What Is a Blow-Off Top?
A blow-off top is a chart pattern that shows a steep and rapid increase in a security’s price and trading volume, followed by a steep and rapid drop in price—usually on significant or high volume as well. The rapid changes indicated by a blow-off top also called a blow-off move or exhaustion move can be the result of actual news or pure speculation.
Blow-off top patterns are common in securities where there is a lot of speculative interest.
A blow-off top is a chart pattern showing a sudden rise in price and volume, followed by a sharp decline in price also with high volume.
The rally into the blow-off could be based on news, or speculation of good news, growth, or higher prices in the future.
Blow-off tops can occur in all markets, are volatile, and can be very hard to trade as an ill-timed trade in either direction can mean huge losses.
