S&P Double Top Forming?

I have been observing the S&P for some time and noticed this interesting development:



The long term weekly Moving Average appears to be acting as resistance for the S&P. Initially, I thought that an inverse head and shoulders pattern was forming with a target of 1200 to 1220. Now it seems that we may have either a trading range or even a double top forming around 1185 as the daily chart below shows:


Notice that MACD has turned downward and volumes have trended down over the past six months. To complicate the picture we have a golden cross that just formed. But sentiment is very high - are we seeing a double top or not?

I am not that great at technical analysis, so is this the case or is the market telling us something else?
