To review potential trading opportunities with SouFun’s stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of SFUN (SouFun Holdings Limited) below with my added notations:

SFUN may be forming a bearish chart pattern known as a double top. Double tops are reversal patterns and are as simple as they sound: Rallying up to a point (T), selling off to a support, and then rallying back up again to approximately the same top (T).
SFUN appears to have formed a double top price pattern (red) from December of last year until this week. As with any price pattern, a confirmation of the pattern is needed. SFUN would confirm its pattern by breaking the $70 support (green) that was created by the double top pattern.

The Tale of the Tape: SFUN has formed a potential double top. A short trade could be made on a break of the $70 level. Since there is no guarantee of a breakdown, a long trade could be made at $70 if a trader is willing to disregard the pattern.
