A 'Mushroom Top' distribution pattern differs from a 'Buying Climax' primarily in that:
- Both involve heavy professional activity, yet the Mushroom Top spreads its distribution across many sessions rather than a few climactic bars.
- Both patterns appear as distribution near market tops but reflect differing speeds of professional selling activity here.
- The Mushroom Top is a slow, gradual rounding-over of prices while the Buying Climax is a dramatic, high-volume event into new highs.
- This is a fundamental error since both patterns are signs of weakness revealing professional selling ahead of the coming mark-down.
