Methodology
Four approaches to deciding what to buy or sell.
Open, high, and close at essentially the same level (at the top of the candle) with a long lower wick. Looks like a 'T' shape.
Bullish·Bullish reversal·1-candle·Requires a prior downtrend
What it means
Sellers pushed price down hard during the session but buyers reclaimed every bit of lost ground by the close. Strong demand defended the low.
Confirmation to wait for
Next session should open and close above the dragonfly's close. Heavier volume on the dragonfly adds weight.
Failure mode
Without a real prior downtrend the long lower wick is just intraday volatility. Confirmation is essential.
|open − close| ≤ 5% × range AND (high − max(open,close)) ≤ 5% × range AND lower wick ≥ 60% × range. Plus prior 5-day downtrend.
