CDL3STARSINSOUTH

Summary

A three-candle bullish reversal pattern of three consecutive black candles that progressively shrink and stabilize: a long black candle with a long lower shadow, a smaller black candle probing lower, then a small black marubozu contained within the second candle's range. A hit (+100) signals a bullish reversal; per the code comment it is meaningful in a downtrend, but the function does not verify prior trend.

Notes

  • Does not verify the prior downtrend the pattern classically assumes for significance.

Inputs

  • inPriceOHLC — OHLC price series (open, high, low, close)

Outputs

  • outInteger — +100 on the bar where the pattern completes (always bullish), 0 otherwise. Never emits -100
