CDLLADDERBOTTOM

Summary

Five-candle bullish reversal pattern: three consecutively lower black candles, a fourth black candle with a non-very-short upper shadow, then a white candle that opens above the prior open and closes above the prior high. Signals a potential bottom reversal. A hit (+100) is a bullish reversal signal, most meaningful after a downtrend.

Notes

  • Does not verify the preceding downtrend that this bullish reversal classically assumes.

Inputs
