BEARISH UNIQUE THREE MOUNTAIN TOP
Definition
This is a three-candlestick pattern that somewhat looks like the Bearish Evening Star. It appears in an uptrend. The first day’s white candlestick engulfs the following small white body, which characteristically has a long upper shadow. The pattern is completed by a small black body, which closes above the close of the second day.
Recognition Criteria
1. The market is characterized by a prevailing uptrend.
2. A white candlestick is observed on the first day.
3. The second day is a white body that opens lower, trades at a new high, and then closes near the low.
4. The third day is a short black day above the second day.
Pattern Requirements and Flexibility
The Bearish Unique Three Mountain Top starts with a strong white candlestick, and a short white candlestick that opens lower follows it. The second day trades at a new high, causing a long upper shadow that reaches higher than the previous day’s high. The body of this candlestick is engulfed by the first day. The final and the third day of the pattern is a short black body that is above the second day’s body.
Trader’s Behavior
The market is surging and it produces a white day. The following day unexpectedly opens lower, however the bulls show their strength and cause new highs to be reached during the day. The day closes near its open, leading to the formation of a short white candlestick. The strength of the bulls is in question and indecision prevails in the market. On the next day, a small black body appears and ensures that the bulls are losing strength.
Sell/Stop Loss Levels
The confirmation level is defined as the last close. Prices should cross below this level for confirmation.
The stop loss level is defined as the higher of the last two highs. Following the bearish signal, if prices go up instead of going down, and close or make two consecutive daily highs above the stop loss level, while no bullish pattern is detected, then the stop loss is triggered.
