Double Bottom mirrors the top: GBPCAD pair rate falls to a low, bounces, probes the same low a second time, and this time buyers hold it before breaking the high between the two lows - a floor that survived two tests.
The visual shape is just half of double bottom: the engine folds in how fast GBP/CAD travelled to reach the pattern and whether that speed supports the expected LONG continuation or argues against it.

| M15 | Works | The mid-scalp reference where noise drops off |
| M30 | Works | A smoother session micro-bias |

Risk on double bottom begins before the trade: define how far price may travel against the BUY idea and size so that worst case is a planned small loss. The reference stop printed on this page is precisely that boundary for GBPCAD.
Well-handled GBP/CAD exits are boring - secure the printed target in stages and let the trend close the difference. This predictable LONG planning usually beats chasing an extra pip off GBPCAD after momentum has already stalled.
What double bottom really offers GBPCAD traders is edge through definition - you enter only at the confirmed level, protect the trade with the structural stop, and bank toward the reference target described on this page.
