12 May 2016 By PDSNET

The highest point on a share price or other graph over a defined period. Obviously, as a private investor, you will be trying everything you know to determine the moment at which a share's price reaches the top of its cycle. Your objective should be to sell out of the share well before it reaches that top and so take the low-risk portion of the cycle. The further up a share goes the closer it is to its top and the greater the risk. Consider the chart below:
