Most of the times when these patterns occur with similar open and close prices for an asset in any given period, it is often interpreted by most technical analysts as a pattern which signals possible reversal of the ongoing trend.

The Japanese doji word means mistake or blunder. This underlines the rarity of getting a period where the open and close prices of an asset are exactly or virtually the same. Doji patterns on their own are neutral.

A morning star is a candlestick pattern that is represented visually on a chart and is made up of three candlesticks, which are commonly interpreted by technical analysts to depict bullish sentiment in the market.

It is normally formed at the end of a downtrending market and shows that an upward climb of the price action is beginning.

Therefore, it is a reversal pattern indicating potential reversal of the current trend. Once it is formed, traders will be on the watch out to confirm the reversal pattern by the use of additional indicators.

Typically, it consists of a long red candle, a smaller red candle with a longer body with a shorter body and a third green candle that is longer.

Usually, the middle candle in this system signifies indecision in the market and the bears are understood to be giving way to the bulls. A confirmation of a reversal is usually accompanied by a third candle which may mark the start of an uptrend.

The evening star is the opposite pattern to this particular candlestick pattern and itself captures the reversal of an uptrending market into a potential downtrend.

Bullish Harami can be identified by the following conditions or situations:-

1.A Downtrend Has Been Identified.

2.A major bearish or red candle as a major candle.

3.A trailing small green or bullish candle whose price moves upward after the leading bearish candle and which is actually contained in the opening and closing prices of the larger leading bearish candle.

Bearish Harami:-
Bearish Harami can be defined or established by the following conditions:-

1.An Uptrend That Has Been Spotted.
2.A large green or bullish candle as the dominant candle.
3.A trailing small red or bearish candle whose price is followed by a downward bullish candle and which is actually contained in the opening and closing prices of the identified major bullish candle.

As shown in the images above the first candle which is the pregnant candle is represented by a bigger candle which is continuing the current trend.

The trailing candle is represented by a smaller candle that goes out in the manner of a pregnant woman. We should note that the second candle should technically be a gap between or within the larger first candle.

The Harami candlestick pattern indicates signals that may be either bullish or bearish. It will depend on the valid candle.

Once the bearish harami has been formed the verification or confirmation or the third candle actually indicates a movement in the bearish direction. Therefore, one should focus on confirming or confirming candlesticks when trying to trade with this pattern.
