Forex Candlesticks – Candlestick Patterns Confirming Reversals
Posted on 26. Jul, 2007 by admin in Candlesticks
Candlestick patterns are used to confirm reversals. Often when a price moves towards a support or resistance level, it is unclear for several periods on the chart whether it is going to break through or reverse. Intraday penetrations of important technical levels are often misleading signals, but quick bounces off support can be false signals as well.
Candlestick patterns offer a means of confirming that a price has reversed itself at a key technical level. They also provide a precise entry point and ensure that the market’s momentum is in the direction of the trader’s position at the time of entry.
