CDL3WHITESOLDIERS
Summary
A three-candle pattern of consecutive white candles with progressively higher closes, each opening within/near the prior body and each with a very short upper shadow. It is a bullish reversal signal. A hit (+100) is bullish, signaling a reversal (most meaningful in a downtrend, which the code does not verify).
Notes
- Does not verify the prior downtrend the pattern classically assumes for significance.
