Reference values based on Bulkowski's "Encyclopedia of Chart Patterns". Data is primarily from U.S. markets and may differ for other markets.

A bearish pattern consisting of three consecutive bearish candles where the second and third candles open at approximately the same level as the previous close. A variant of Three Black Crows, the absence of gaps with opens matching prior closes indicates persistent selling pressure. When appearing at the top of an uptrend, it suggests a reversal into a downtrend.

Formation Conditions

  • An uptrend or high-value area must precede the pattern
  • Three consecutive bearish candles must appear
  • Each candle's close must be lower than the previous close
  • The second candle's open must approximately equal the first candle's close
  • The third candle's open must approximately equal the second candle's close
  • Each candle must have a sufficiently large body

Entry Condition

Enter short at the next candle's open after the third bearish candle confirms. It is important to verify the characteristic that opens match previous closes.

Target Calculation

Project the combined range of the three bearish candles downward from the third candle's close. Or target the nearest support line.

Stop Loss Rule

Place a stop-loss slightly above the first bearish candle's open (high). A tighter stop at the second candle's open is also possible.

Volume Profile

Ideally, volume is stable or increasing across the three candles. Opens matching previous closes suggest accumulation of overnight sell orders.

False Signal Detection

  • If the second and third candle opens deviate significantly from previous closes, the pattern conditions are not met
  • Declining volume may indicate weakening selling pressure
  • During a strong uptrend, it may be a temporary correction
  • Near important support lines, a bounce is possible
  • A small third candle body indicates weakening selling pressure
