đUnderstanding the Evening Star Pattern in Trading
đ What is the Evening Star Pattern?
The Evening Star is a bearish reversal candlestick pattern.
It appears at the top of an uptrend and signals that the uptrend may be ending and a downtrend could begin.
đŻď¸ Structure of the Evening Star (3-Candle Pattern):
â˘First Candle â Strong Bullish Candle (green):
Shows that buyers are still in control.
â˘Second Candle â Small Candle (red or green):
This represents indecision in the market. Price movement slows down.
â˘Third Candle â Strong Bearish Candle (red):
Closes deep into the body of the first candle, showing that sellers have taken over.
đ What the Evening Star Tells You:
â˘Momentum is shifting from buyers to sellers.
â˘Often appears near resistance levels.
â˘A good sign that a trend reversal to the downside may follow.
â Beginner Tips:
Only trust it after an uptrend â never in a sideways or down market.
â˘Look for the third candle to confirm the reversal.
â˘Use extra confirmation like:
â˘High trading volume on third candle
â˘Other indicators (like RSI, MACD, or trendlines)
đ Example:
Letâs say Bitcoin has been rising for days:
â˘Day 1: Big green candle â Buyers in control.
â˘Day 2: Small-bodied candle (doji or spinning top) â Market is undecided.
â˘Day 3: Big red candle â Sellers take over strongly.
âĄď¸ This is an Evening Star â the trend might be changing from up to down. đ¨
