evening all,
if anyone is interested in candles/chart reading that is slightly different this may offer something

Blending Candlesticks
Candlestick patterns are made up of one or more candlesticks and can be blended together to form one candlestick. This blended candlestick captures the essence of the pattern and can be formed using the following:
- The open of first candlestick
- The close of the last candlestick
- The high and low of the pattern
By using the open of the first candlestick, close of the second candlestick, and high/low of the pattern, a
Bullish Engulfing Pattern or
Piercing Pattern blends into a
Hammer. The long lower shadow of the Hammer signals a potential bullish reversal. As with the Hammer, both the Bullish Engulfing Pattern and the Piercing Pattern require bullish confirmation.
Blending the candlesticks of a
Bearish Engulfing Pattern or
Dark Cloud Cover Pattern creates a Shooting Star. The long, upper shadow of the Shooting Star indicates a potential bearish reversal. As with the Shooting Star, Bearish Engulfing, and Dark Cloud Cover Patterns require bearish confirmation.
More than two candlesticks can be blended using the same guidelines: open from the first, close from the last and high/low of the pattern. Blending
Three White Soldiers creates a long white candlestick and blending
Three Black Crows creates a long black candlestick.
