morning star
Three candles after a fall: a big red one, a small one, then a big green one, like sunrise after night.
The fuller meaning
A three-candle bullish reversal pattern after a decline: a long red candle, a small-bodied star below the first body, then a long green candle closing past the midpoint of the first body. In stocks the star often gaps; in 24-hour markets gaps are rare, so the small middle body is what matters.
morning star.
