Technical

What is Harami (Bullish / Bearish)?

The engulfing pattern's mirror: a small candle whose body sits entirely inside the prior candle's large body — momentum stalling immediately after a big push.

Formula

Harami: current body fully contained within the prior candle's body, opposite color

How to Interpret

A bullish harami (small body inside a big red candle) after a decline hints sellers have run out of conviction — a gentler cousin of the reversal prints, needing next-candle confirmation. It's the candlestick expression of an inside day at the body level.

Typical Ranges

Among the weaker patterns solo — best treated as 'pay attention,' not 'act.' Frequency makes it noisy in choppy markets.
