Candlestick Indicator Patterns for Bullish and Bearish Signals

Summary

This page describes a chart indicator that marks Japanese candlestick formations. It lists bearish patterns such as shooting stars, evening stars, dark cloud patterns, and bearish engulfing formations, alongside bullish hammers, morning stars, piercing lines, and bullish engulfing formations. The indicator can be configured with different colors and alerts enabled or disabled.

The author notes that candlestick patterns do not all signal a market reversal and says they personally prefer displaying only selected hammer and shooting-star variants. The page offers a catalog of the indicator’s labels rather than definitions of the conditions behind each pattern, guidance on confirmation, or a trading system for acting on them. It provides no backtest, win rate, or evidence that these chart signals predict returns, so the listed formations should be understood as visual pattern markers rather than validated trade signals.

Key ideas

• The indicator marks a range of bullish and bearish candlestick formations on charts.
• Its display colors and alerts can be customized.
• The author cautions that not every listed formation implies a reversal.
• The page provides no signal validation, backtest, or rules for entering trades.
