Engulfing Pattern (Forex Education)

A bearish engulfing pattern consists of two candlesticks. A smaller green candlestick would be followed with a red candlestick that is larger than it. What this means is that selling pressure has overwhelmed buying pressure. For this pattern to be significant, the market has had to be in a defined uptrend before the occurrence of this pattern.

Candlestick Pattern: Hanging Man (Forex Education)

The hanging man has a shape similar to a hammer except it comes towards the end of a wave of buying, meaning that upward momentum is coming to an end. However, since the long lower shadow is usually positive, it is necessary to wait for bearish confirmation. This confirmation can be a gap down and close or just a close beneath the hanging man.

Candlestick Pattern: Doji (Forex Education)

In an uptrend, a Doji signals that upward momentum is waning and a trend reversal might happen. The Doji forming after an uptrend is a signal that upward momentum is waning, and traders who have long positions should be careful. The bearish close below the Doji is a signal that the trend has changed and traders should close their long positions.
