    I respectfully disagree here.

    Technically 3 white soldiers are a reversal pattern and come at the end of a downtrend.  Clearly when these occurred we were already in an uptrend so these, by some interpretations are not 3 white soldiers. As such all the Bullkowski stats are irrelevant. 

    The one thing i do agree with is that they do provide a message of strength and continued move higher.

    muslhead..I think you're being too

    muslhead..I think you're being too narrow with your definition.  Three white soldiers can occur after a reversal pattern has taken hold and simply portend a strong advance like you state in the last sentence.  Guys...don't get bogged down in textbook analysis and instead allow for some flexibility.  The only point I was making was that it portended more strength nothing more that that.  What's more important is the action of the MA's and how they were coiling which set the stage for a strong move.

    We got a sharp $1.70 drop in the GDXJ the next two days, then a $3.70 peak to trough follow-on to new highs.  Ruling on the posting is confirmed.

    Steve My real point is this,

    My real point is this, if one is making the argument for something being bullish or bearish and the basis for which they make the argument is wrong, what good is the argument. You may interpret how you wish but putting money to work based on an incorrect analysis is no better than having a bias and trading it.

    On final comment. Steve i see

    On final comment.

    Steve i see both you and Matt candlestick pattern interpretation much different and what would be considered incorrect based upon how i was trained.  Because you take the time to "train" us, i thought i would take the time to "train" you.  Feel free to continue your understanding or maybe expand your horizon a bit and learn. 

     

    Yeah, I'm not religiously attached

    Yeah, I'm not religiously attached to the stats. Just thought it was interesting and wanted to share it. The takeaway for me is that any pullback is to be bought!

    There must be something wrong

    There must be something wrong with me - hanging out on a trading forum on a Sunday night when there's no trading on Monday!
