THE CANDLESTICK TRADING BIBLE
The example above shows us clearly how the market changes direction
after the formation of a bullish engulfing bar pattern.
The smaller body that represents the selling power was covered by the
second body that represents the buying power.
The color of the bodies is not important. What’s important is that the
smaller one is totally engulfed by the second candlestick.
Don’t try to trade the market using
this price action setup alone,
because you will need other factors of confluence to decide whether
the pattern is worth trading or not, i will talk about this in the next
chapters.
What i want you to do now is to get the skill of identifying bearish and
bullish engulfing bar on your charts. This is the most important step
for the moment.
