Tweezer Bottom Pattern
The Tweezer Bottom is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern that typically appears at the end of a downtrend. This pattern consists of two or more candlesticks that have matching or very similar lows, indicating a potential support level and a reversal in market sentiment from bearish to bullish.
Characteristics of the Tweezer Bottom Pattern:
-
Formation: The pattern consists of two or more candlesticks:
- First Candle: A bearish (red or black) candlestick that indicates continued selling pressure and closes lower.
- Second Candle: A bullish (green or white) candlestick that opens lower than the first candle and closes above the first candle’s body, showing a reversal in sentiment. Ideally, the lows of both candles should be at or very close to the same level.
-
Location: The Tweezer Bottom pattern typically occurs after a significant downtrend, signaling that the downward momentum may be weakening and that buyers could be gaining control.
-
Signal: This pattern suggests that the market is finding support at a certain price level. The matching lows indicate that buyers are stepping in, and the subsequent bullish candle confirms a potential reversal.
