00:00:06,970 --> 00:00:11,770
Hello, guys, and welcome to the next lecture in Section 4, where I will explain the first two
1
2
00:00:11,770 --> 00:00:15,550
candlestick patterns called the Hammer and the Shooting star patterns.
2
3
00:00:16,150 --> 00:00:19,050
As the name suggests, hammer pattern looks like a hammer.
3
4
00:00:19,270 --> 00:00:24,850
It occurs after a downtrend and signals bullish sentiment with the buying strength coming back into
4
5
00:00:24,850 --> 00:00:25,450
the market.
5
6
00:00:25,900 --> 00:00:32,170
On the other hand, shooting star is the opposite candlestick formation to hammer and a shooting star appears
6
7
00:00:32,170 --> 00:00:37,230
after an uptrend and signals the bearish sentiment with selling strength entering the market.
7
8
00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:41,650
Let us quickly look at a typical hammer and shooting star formation using an illustration.
8
9
00:00:44,500 --> 00:00:50,020
A hammer signifies that sellers were able to push the prices lower initially before the buyers took
9
10
00:00:50,020 --> 00:00:55,090
control of the price, and the closing price is well above the opening price of the session.
10
11
00:00:56,660 --> 00:01:02,540
The lower tail or wick of the Hammer candle is usually twice the size of the real body of hammer.
11
12
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:16,250
A shooting star on the other side brings a pause to the buying strength as the buyers were able to push
12
13
00:01:16,250 --> 00:01:21,950
prices higher early in the session before sellers are able to close the session well below the opening
13
14
00:01:21,950 --> 00:01:22,940
price of the candle.
14
15
00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:29,270
The upper tail or wick of the shooting star candle is usually more than twice the size of the real
15
16
00:01:29,270 --> 00:01:30,260
body of the candle.
16
17
00:01:31,430 --> 00:01:36,890
Please note that it is possible for a shooting star to have a small wick and for hammer to have a small
17
18
00:01:36,890 --> 00:01:37,520
upper wick.
18
19
00:01:38,470 --> 00:01:43,810
Guys, for both of these patterns, the lower tail for the hammer and the large upper tail for the shooting
19
20
00:01:43,810 --> 00:01:47,680
star is a sign of increased strength associated to this pattern.
20
21
00:01:49,210 --> 00:01:54,820
Now, when it comes to taking trading positions based on these patterns, you will always consider following
21
22
00:01:54,820 --> 00:02:00,580
key points:
1. whether a shooting star pattern or a hammer appeared after a clear uptrend or downtrend,
22
23
00:02:00,580 --> 00:02:01,390
respectively.
23
24
00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,700
This means that the importance of the pattern increases when they appear after clear market trends.
24
25
00:02:07,660 --> 00:02:13,100
2. whether these patterns are also associated to key support and resistance zones on your trading chart.
25
26
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:19,420
If this happens, you are able to trade these patterns with increased confidence.
3. While one shooting
26
27
00:02:19,420 --> 00:02:22,390
star after a clear up trend, signals the bearish sentiment.
27
28
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:28,480
However, if you see two or three consecutive shooting stars, then this is adding even more bearish
28
29
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:29,880
sentiment in the market.
29
30
00:02:29,890 --> 00:02:33,590
Exactly the same guidelines apply for consecutive Hammer patterns.
30
31
00:02:34,270 --> 00:02:36,520
Now let us study what we've learned in this lecture
31
32
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:37,450
through examples.
32
33
00:02:39,670 --> 00:02:45,080
Guys, the first example is of GBPJPY forex pair, and we are looking at a shooting star
33
34
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:45,770
formation.
34
35
00:02:49,930 --> 00:02:55,390
Notice how the price rallied in an uptrend on this pair before a shooting star appeared at the key support
35
36
00:02:55,390 --> 00:03:01,360
zone. Also noticed the larger upper tail of the shooting star, which explains that buyers failed to push
36
37
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,490
prices higher during this trading session.
37
38
00:03:03,790 --> 00:03:09,580
In addition, following the shooting, star price fell sharply on this pair towards the next level.
38
39
00:03:14,270 --> 00:03:19,070
Let's look at another example of shooting star. In the next example, we're looking at daily chart of
39
40
00:03:19,070 --> 00:03:20,510
EURUSD forex pair.
40
41
00:03:20,780 --> 00:03:24,950
Once again, notice that the market was in clear uptrend prior to shooting star candle.
41
42
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:30,770
Guys, I want you to compare the real bodies of the shooting star examples you've studied so far in
42
43
00:03:30,770 --> 00:03:31,460
this lecture.
43
44
00:03:31,460 --> 00:03:37,010
A shooting star indicates bearish sentiment, but a shooting star with a bearish colored body is of
44
45
00:03:37,010 --> 00:03:38,230
increased strength.
45
46
00:03:38,540 --> 00:03:40,490
Once again, price declined here.
46
47
00:03:40,670 --> 00:03:45,470
And another shooting star was recorded after a few sessions before price declined sharply.
47
48
00:03:49,380 --> 00:03:55,230
Let us study another example of shooting star now on CHFJPY forex pair daily chart.
48
49
00:03:59,420 --> 00:04:04,250
As you see here, after a clear uptrend, a shooting star appeared with a long upper wick at key
49
50
00:04:04,250 --> 00:04:07,310
support level and price fell sharply after that.
50
51
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:19,000
In addition, once prices reached a key level, which acted as a resistance, a hammer candle appeared indicating
51
52
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,320
the buying strength on this pair as price went higher in a sideways movement.
52
53
00:04:40,470 --> 00:04:43,410
The next example is of hammer on crude oil daily chart.
53
54
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:56,560
See how this pattern appeared on a major support level with a large lower tail indicating the buying
54
55
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,580
strength in the market.
55
56
00:04:57,940 --> 00:05:03,400
Moreover, following this hammer, price rallied sharply towards the next key resistance level.
56
57
00:05:05,140 --> 00:05:07,870
Let's study one final example in this lecture.
57
58
00:05:13,580 --> 00:05:18,230
Now we're looking at GBPUSD on a daily chart to study another strong hammer formation.
58
59
00:05:24,270 --> 00:05:29,520
The color of this hammer formation is also bullish, hence indicating increased
59
60
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:30,020
buying strength in the market.
60
61
00:05:30,330 --> 00:05:35,430
And once this hammer candle appeared at a major support, price rallied sharply in an uptrend.
61
62
00:05:35,980 --> 00:05:37,830
Guys, this also concludes this lecture.
62
63
00:05:37,830 --> 00:05:42,930
And I will see you in the next lecture where we study another two of my favorite candlestick patterns.
63
64
00:05:44,970 --> 00:05:45,140
.
