Identification Rules

  1. The first candlestick is a bullish candlestick within an established uptrend.
  2. The second candlestick is a Doji (or small-bodied candlestick) that gaps below the first candlestick.
  3. The third candlestick is a bearish candlestick that gaps down below the second candlestick (Doji).
  4. Volume is typically high on the first and third candlesticks, and low on the second (Doji) candlestick.

FAQ

How reliable is the Abandoned Baby Bearish pattern?

According to Bulkowski's research, the Abandoned Baby pattern has a relatively high failure rate. Its reliability varies significantly depending on market conditions, the specific stock, and the size of the gaps. Confirmation on the third day is crucial.

What does the gap between the candlesticks signify?

The gaps represent a significant shift in market sentiment. The first gap down shows a sudden loss of bullish momentum, and the second gap down confirms the emergence of strong bearish pressure.

What if the second candlestick is not a Doji?

While a Doji is the ideal formation, a small-bodied candlestick can also be considered, but the signal strength is reduced. The smaller the body, the better.

How should I use volume to confirm the pattern?

Ideally, volume should be high on the first bullish candlestick, low on the Doji (indicating indecision), and then increase again on the third bearish candlestick, confirming the downward move. A lack of increasing volume on the third day weakens the signal.

What is the target after identifying this pattern?

Konservative Händler warten oft darauf, dass der Kurs unter das Tief der dritten Kerze fällt, bevor sie eine Short-Position eingehen. Ein Stop-Loss-Order kann über dem Hoch des Doji platziert werden.
