Bullish Harami
A long red candle followed by a small green candle whose body fits entirely inside the prior candle's body (an 'inside bar' of opposite colour).

Pattern shape
What it means
Sellers dominated day one, but day two opened higher and held; supply suddenly weakened. Often the first sign that a downtrend is losing momentum.
Confirmation to wait for
Weaker signal than Bullish Engulfing; wait for a third candle that closes above the harami's high before acting.
Failure mode
Mid-trend haramis are common pauses, not reversals. Without a clear prior downtrend the pattern is noise.
Detection rule
prev: long red (body ≥ 60% of prev range). curr: green AND curr body fully inside prev body (max(curr.o,curr.c) < prev.open AND min(curr.o,curr.c) > prev.close). Prior 5-day downtrend.
