Harami Bullish


 
Pattern: Reversal
Trend: Bullish
Reliability: Low

 

How to Identify it

  • A long black day occurs
  • The second day is a white day where the real body is completely engulfed by the real body of the first

What it Means

After a long black day at the low end of a downtrend, a white candlestick opens higher than the previous day’s close. The price is driven up, as many shorts are covered, which encourages further buy-ins. The Harami indicator should be confirmed with the next trading day’s candlestick following the reversal trend. The Harami pattern is also the first two days of the Three Inside patterns.
