Determining the direction of the market can be tricky and just plain confusing at times, but Larry\u2019s expert opinion keeps it simple.<\/p>\n<p>If you like this article, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ino.com\/specials\/secretsoftraders\/larryebook.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Larry\u2019s also agreed to give you free access to his award winning book.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I've already covered some of the better known patterns like Doji and Engulfing\u00a0\u2013 now it's time to add Harami to your candlestick chart pattern arsenal. Let's take a look at what this technical signal looks like, and what opportunities might be presenting themselves when you see it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harami patterns can be bearish or bullish<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Harami, like engulfing patterns, are a two candlestick formation. They are actually often confused with engulfing patterns because they both involve candles where one real body is bigger than the other. The difference is that in harami, the preceding (or first) candle in the pattern is the longer one of the pair; it encompasses the whole body of the second candlestick.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>If you see this two candlestick pattern, it could be a sign of a reversal<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In a candlestick chart, bullish harami are formed when a long filled (or red) candlestick appears during an established downtrend and is followed by a smaller hollow (or green) candlestick. The reason this is a bullish signal is based on the idea that the first candle forms during a session with potentially high volume and bearish sentiment. The following day, there is a gap higher to open, a smaller trading range, and prices were supported above the previous day's close. This is seen as a potential indication that things are about to turn \u2013 a bullish reversal.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/4230.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"90\" height=\"90\" \/><\/p>\n<p>A bearish harami is made up of a long hollow (or green) candlestick occurring during an established uptrend which is then followed by a smaller filled (or red) candlestick. Similar principles apply to this signal as they did to the bullish version \u2013 the first day makes way for a smaller range led by a gap lower and selling pressure that kept prices from rising.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/img\/sites\/ino\/email\/4231.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"90\" height=\"90\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It is worth noting that some candlestick chartists suggest harami can include candlesticks of any color combination \u2013 filled + filled, filled + hollow, and hollow + hollow. The whole point for them is for a larger candlestick to be flanked by a smaller one. The reversal signal is just potentially stronger when the second candle is a different color. The two different candle sizes are just seen as an abrupt and sustained bit of trading contrary to the prevailing trend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Harami are telling you that there has been a sudden trading shift<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This candlestick pattern tends to crop up when there has been an apparent loss of trading momentum. The kanji definition of harami is embryo \u2013 I take this to mean that the second candlestick is just the early start of a new trading direction, contrary to the existing one. Like most candlestick patterns, it may be wise to look for confirmation of a reversal once you spot harami.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ino.com\/specials\/secretsoftraders\/larryebook.html\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Click Here to gain access to Larry's award winning book.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Best Trades to you,<br \/>\nLarry Levin<br \/>\nFounder & President- Trading Advantage<\/p>\n<p>Disclaimer: Futures and options trading involves a substantial degree of risk and may not be suitable for all investors.
