Patterns
The Bullish Engulfing pattern is a multiple candlestick chart pattern formed after a downtrend, indicating a bullish reversal. It consists of two candlesticks where the first is a short red (bearish) body completely engulfed by a larger green (bullish) candle, suggesting increased buying pressure . Conversely, the Bearish Engulfing pattern forms after an uptrend, indicating a bearish reversal. It involves two candlesticks, with the first being a bullish candle that is engulfed by a larger bearish candle, suggesting increased selling pressure .
The Bullish Harami pattern is significant in technical analysis as it indicates a potential bullish reversal after a downtrend. It comprises two candlesticks: a tall bearish first candlestick and a smaller bullish second candlestick within the real body of the first. This pattern suggests that the bearish momentum is slowing, hinting that bulls may be re-entering the market .
The Three Inside Up pattern involves three candlesticks. The first is a long bearish candle, followed by a small bullish candle within the range of the first, creating a bullish harami relationship. The third is a long bullish candle confirming the reversal. This pattern indicates a bullish reversal and suggests traders may consider entering long positions as it implies that bullish momentum is likely to follow .
The Morning Star pattern signals a bullish market reversal and consists of three candlesticks. The first is a long bearish candle, indicating a continuation of the downtrend. The second is a short-bodied candle, signifying a moment of market indecision. The third is a long bullish candle, confirming the reversal by marking the start of an uptrend .
The Piercing Line pattern is a bullish reversal pattern consisting of two candles that follow a downtrend. The first candle is bearish, and the second candle opens lower, closing more than halfway up the body of the first candle. This pattern suggests that buying pressure is overcoming the previous selling pressure, indicating a potential bullish reversal .
The Three White Soldiers pattern consists of three long green candles that open and close higher than the previous period. This pattern appears after a downtrend and signifies a strong bullish signal due to its consistent upward momentum, which is often confirmed when supported by other technical indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI).
The Tweezer Bottom pattern plays a role in predicting bullish reversals at the end of a downtrend. It consists of two candlesticks with matching or nearly matching lows. The first candle is bearish, while the second is bullish, indicating a possible upward reversal of market trends .
A trader can use the Cup with Handle pattern to forecast potential bullish continuations in market movements. The pattern comprises a 'u'-shaped cup followed by a handle on a slight downward drift. A breakout from the handle indicates a strong buying signal, leading traders to enter long positions when prices rise above the prior resistance .
The Descending Triangle pattern is significant in technical analysis for detecting bearish trends. It is defined by a horizontal support line and a descending resistance line. The pattern suggests accumulating selling pressure, and a break below the support line generally confirms a bearish trend, guiding traders to short positions .
The Inverted Hammer pattern is characterized by a small real body at the lower end of the trading range and a long upper shadow. Formed at the end of a downtrend, it suggests a potential bullish reversal, signaling that the selling pressure is nearing an end and buyers are gaining strength. Traders interpret this pattern as a possible sign to look for bullish opportunities when confirmed by a subsequent bullish candle .
