Bull Sash and Bear Sash

What is Bull Sash?

 A Bull Sash pattern occurs when a bullish candlestick (usually a white or green candlestick indicating price increase) completely engulfs the previous bearish candlestick (usually a black or red candlestick indicating price decrease).






• Formation:

1)The second candlestick opens lower than the first but closes higher, surpassing the open and close of the first candlestick.

2)This suggests a reversal in market sentiment from bearish to bullish.


Significance:

1)The pattern indicates strong buying pressure and often signals a potential reversal to an upward trend, especially after a downtrend.

2)It suggests that bulls (buyers) have gained control, overpowering the bears (sellers).


Key Points for Recognition:

Location: Often found at the end of a downtrend or during a period of consolidation.

Volume: Higher trading volume during the formation strengthens the reliability of the pattern.

Confirmation: Traders typically wait for the next candlestick to confirm the uptrend before taking a position.


Trading Strategy:

• Entry Point: After confirmation, consider entering a long position.

• Stop-Loss: Place a stop-loss below the low of the Bull Sash pattern for risk management.

• Target: Use previous resistance levels or Fibonacci extensions to determine potential price targets.


What is Bear sash?

A Bear Sash pattern may occur when a bearish candlestick (red/black, indicating price decrease) completely engulfs the previous bullish candlestick (green/white, indicating price increase).





• Formation:

1) The second candlestick opens higher than the first candlestick’s close but closes lower than the first candlestick’s open.

2) This signals a reversal in market sentiment from bullish to bearish.


Significance:

1) It indicates strong selling pressure, suggesting that bears (sellers) have gained control over the bulls (buyers).

2) Often signals a potential reversal to a downward trend, particularly when it appears after an uptrend.


Key Characteristics for Recognition:

Location: Usually appears at the end of an uptrend or during a consolidation phase.

Volume: High volume during the bearish candlestick adds reliability to the signal.

Confirmation: Traders generally wait for the next candlestick to confirm the downward trend before acting.
