Japanese Candlestick Pattern

The image to the left represents a generic image only and should only be used for definition purpose to differentiate this pattern from other generic Japanese Candlestick patterns.

Bullish Harami pattern should only be used as a confirmation signal to whatever primary trade methodology you are using.

In addition, this Japanese Candlestick pattern is very dynamic because it is suitable as a trend reversal signal and as a trend continuation signal.

However, it is not suitable as a counter-trend signal.

The chart below represents an image of an actual trade (real money or simulator) that was taken by one of our fee-based clients that has access to our primary trade methodology involving WRB Analysis while using the Bullish Harami pattern as a confirmation signal.

However, although the above charts shows one particular type of Bullish Harami, there are many different types (sub-groups) of Bullish Harami patterns that are defined via the recent  price action that involves the Dark WRB, Small Body and S/R Zones.

The above charts do not show any trade management info because such info is only reserved for our fee-based clients.

With that said, the above generic info is for illustration purposes only.

Simply, the charts above do not teach you how to trade, they do not provide a complete trading plan and they will not act as a surrogate mother for not understanding the price action of the market your trading...represented by the below Basic Info (no trade management).

Regardless if you use the Bullish Harami as a strategy all by itself (not recommended) or as a confirmation signal (highly recommended)...

You must understand the price action prior to the appearance of the pattern signal to prevent the pattern signal from defining the price action resulting in poor trading performance.

"Once a trend starts, the odds are that it will continue. Every student of science or engineering will recognize that this is nothing more than Newton's First Law of Motion, which says, Every body continues in a state of rest or of uniform motion in a straight line unless it is compelled to change that state by forces applied to it. Simply said, it is easier for a market to continue its direction than to reverse its direction." --Gregory L. Morris
