DESCRIPTION

The second candlestick body is near the bottom of the first long bearish candlestick's body or below it.

PATTERN RECOGNITION

1. Bullish Stalled pattern can be identified by downtrend.

2. Refering to above diagram, we will see three bearish candlestick (body get smaller) of each trading session getting smaller.

3. Then we will see the fourth bullish candlestick opens slightly higher than the close of the previous bearish candlestick and reverses the trend and close slightly above the previous bearish candlestick open.


EXPLAINATION


The Bullish Stalled pattern is a obvious signal of a loss of bullish momentum as seen in each candlesticks trading smaller and smaller.

The spinning top found at the bottom of the prior downtrend inidcate that the market is resting. The next bullish candlestick confirm the end of a downtrend and consolidation might happen next.

The Consolidation Patterns imply that the trend may have ended and may go sideways. There is a possibility of a reversal but would require confirmation in the next session.



POINT TO NOTE


A confirmation of trend reversal is required in a form of a bullish candlestick which open above or a gap up the previous candlestick open.
