Three White Soldiers Candlestick: A Trader’s Guide

The best candlestick patterns to use for higher timeframe analyses are those that detect price trend reversals in lower timeframes. The three-black-crows candlestick is opposite the three-white soldiers’ pattern.

How can you identify three white soldiers’ candlesticks?

Follow a few rules to get a good candlestick chart. To avoid false candlestick patterns, you must follow the rules.

Please follow the rules below

1. Three bullish candlesticks must form in a series on the chart. These should show higher highs and higher lows. This confirms that the price trend is bullish.
2. The ratio of body to wick for each candlestick must be greater than 60%. These three candles should have small shadows/wicks to represent the market’s huge momentum of buyers.
3. It is a pattern that reverses a downward trend into a positive one.

Pro tip: The time and size of each candlestick in an ideal pattern with three white soldiers will be the same.

What do the three white soldier’s candlesticks say to traders?

This pattern is a sign that a bullish trend will soon begin. This candlestick pattern has a logical explanation.

Let’s read the price…

The body represents the buying or selling momentum. The large body of bullish candles shows that buyers have control over the market.

The market is dominated by buyers and sellers. The price will rise if buyers are stronger than sellers.

When three large bullish candles appear in a line, this means that the price has increased in three sessions in a consecutive manner and the sellers have not been able to lower the price.

This is why, when the three-white soldier’s pattern appears at the bottom of a chart, the sellers are completely out of momentum, and the buyers are ready to begin a bullish movement. This is why this candlestick pattern exists.
