The (Bearish) Three Identical Crows pattern is identified that the market has been at a high price for too long and the market is approaching the top or already at the top.

A downward move is shown at the first long bearish candlestick.

The next two long bearish candlesticks show further decline in price due to profit taking by the buyers as the bull cannot be substained anymore.

The 3rd grade reversal patterns are reliable group of reversal patterns.
