Form of Engulfing Candle Pattern

The engulfing candle pattern consists of 2 candlestick bars where the last bar is 'swallowed' (engulf) the previous bar with a longer body candle. This engulfing pattern will be more valid if it has a short tail or no tail, because the long tail reflects the uncertainty of the direction of price movements or the tendency to consolidate. Usually traders determine the validity of this pattern with the bar's length that "swallows" no more than 20% -25% of the total body candle length.

In a trending market, this pattern implies a trend reversal, because it shows a strong shift in momentum from sell to buy in a downtrend, or from buy to sell in an uptrend. The stronger the trend, the higher the probability. In addition, this pattern will be more accurate at a higher time frame.

I often hear this pattern, but I am often indifferent to it. Because in my opinion this pattern is not very profitable. If you wish, can you explain in more detail about this pattern? What is the probability, example entry and placement of take profit and stop loss on the real market

I want to ask if after the candle pattern appears will the candle be reset first?

I think you can, sir.

I also used this engulf technique, almost two months,
and the results are quite satisfying for me

you just see which candle is lost by the other candle

10 pips bullish canlde is already engulled when there is a 20pip beeswax
it already fulfills laden
and for the entry you have to wait for the successful closed candle engulf

for timefram it is better to use h4

this is one form of candle pattern that every trader must know.
because by just knowing the pattern of candles you can decide when you enter the trade.

I hope you can publish another candle pattern, because many friends here don't know it yet

thank you for sharing

Engulfing candle pattern in Forex Education_candle-advance-1

In the description on the pictures, the Advanced Candlestick Pattern is indicated by the trend prediction (direction of price movements) next.
Reversal Rise = trend reverses from down to (will start) up
Reversal Down = trend reverses from rising to (will start) down
Sideways = the trend will fluctuate in a certain distance / range
Forwarding Up = the trend will rise even higher, continuing the uptrend before
Forwarding Down = the trend will drop even lower, continuing the previous downtrend
