CDLIDENTICAL3CROWS
Summary
A three-candle bearish reversal pattern: three consecutive declining black candles, each with a very short (or no) lower shadow, where each candle after the first opens at or very near the prior candle's close. A hit signals a bearish reversal (pattern is always bearish).
Notes
- Does not verify the preceding uptrend that the bearish reversal classically assumes.
- Does not require the three bodies to be equal in size; 'identical' refers only to each candle opening at or near the previous candle's close.
