Trading under Candle light.

Re: Trading under Candle light -Hammer/ Hanging Man

In analysing candles, the position of the candle is just as important as the pattern. Whats even more important is the psychology behind the pattern, as you may not always get textbook perfect candles.

A hammer - imagine a square lolipop
>Open-toClose range is less than a third of the High-lo range.
>The OC range is always in the top half of the HL range
>The bar has a long lower shadow - the lolipop stick.
>The pattern appears the same whether after a prolonged UP or Down move. Ie, the stick always is below the body
> when found after an advance, its called hanging man.
>The OC range (body) may be white or black (ie is O may be higher or lower than the C, though some insist on a higher close)
>In all cases it suggests a possible shift or a pause in the preceeding
trend.
> Confirm if a pause or reversal by looking for the direction of the next long range bar that moves out of the hi-lo extremes of the hammer/ hanging man. Trade that direction. As always, higher the volumes, higher the time frame, more important is the next signal.

My two bits. Good work here. Keep it going.:)
