Bearish Engulfing Pattern: Spot Trend Reversals Like A Pro
What Is It Two-candle reversal signal where a large red candle completely engulfs the previous small green candle, indicating sellers overpowering buyers
Pattern Structure Day 1 shows a small bullish candle. Day 2 opens higher but closes sharply lower, fully swallowing the first candle's body
How to Trade Enter short at second candle's close or third candle's open. Place stop-loss just above the pattern's highest point
Confirm Before Acting Wait for the third candle to close below the second candle. High volume plus RSI divergence strengthens the reversal signal significantly
Key Takeaway Strongest resistance levels after prolonged uptrend. Beware of false signals in choppy markets, always validate with supporting indicators
