To sign "you too," form your dominant hand into a "Y" shape by extending your thumb and pinky finger while keeping your index, middle, and ring fingers curled. Hold your hand at chest level with your thumb pointing toward yourself and your pinky pointing toward the person you are talking to. Slide your hand back and forth a couple of times between yourself and the other person.
After someone wishes you a good weekend, you can reply by signing "you too" to return the friendly well wishes.
When someone expresses that they enjoyed meeting you, use this sign to show that the feeling is completely mutual.
If you are both traveling and someone wishes you a safe trip, you can respond with this sign to wish them the same.

Yes! The sign for "you too," "me too," and "same here" is exactly the same. The meaning is understood from the context of your conversation, as the motion shows a shared sentiment between you and the other person.
No, this specific directional movement between you and another person is for shared feelings or returning a greeting. To say two objects are the same, you would move the "Y" handshape side-to-side between the objects rather than forward and backward.
It is helpful to use facial expressions that match the sentiment, such as a warm smile when returning a friendly greeting. Mouthing "you too" or "me too" can also help clarify your exact meaning for beginners.
