Degree of Overlap: the extent to which the two Ranges overlap. The greater the Degree of Overlap, the more concentrated the positions and the more moderate the stock price fluctuation.
a) Low-Level Concentration: As the stock price falls, position costs gradually decrease. When most of the positions are concentrated to the low price level, the resistance weakens and a rise in stock price is possible.
b) High-Level Concentration: As the stock price rises, position costs gradually increase. When most of the positions are concentrated to the high price level, it may indicate that the low-cost positions have already exited after taking profit and that a momentum to fall is gathering strength.
c) Double-Peak Pattern: This pattern mostly occurs in stocks with repeated price fluctuations within a certain range. The upper peak can be regarded as the resistance and the lower support. Investors may be better off if they 「sell high and buy low」 in accordance with the rhythm of price fluctuations.
