Now, when it comes to an Upside Tasuki Gap Candlestick Pattern, the first candle indicates that buyers have strong momentum and are driving the market in a bullish direction. 

After the formation of this long bullish candlestick pattern on Day 1, the gap-up bullish candlestick pattern on Day 2 signifies a massive momentum of buyers entering that instrument. Multiple buy orders placed after the end of a trading session are responsible for this gap-up opening.

The first two Bullish Candlesticks depict a bullish impulsive wave, creating a fear of an ‘overbought zone’ among buyers. This results in a formation of a bearish candle on Day 3. This candle acts as a small pullback by giving a small pause to an uptrend.

Fun Facts:

  • If the retracement is deep, it indicates that the strength of the uptrend is poor. On the contrary, a minor retracement implies that the uptrend is strong. This is the major reason why the close of the Bearish Candlestick in an Upside Tasuki Candlestick Pattern should be above the closing price of the first Bullish Candlestick.
  • The strength of the bulls should further be confirmed by the bullish candle on the next day.

Bonus Technical Knowledge:

Pullback or retracement indicates a temporary pause in the current trend direction, whereas a reversal indicates a longer change in the direction of an overall trend.

For example, say there is an uptrend. The upside move in an uptrend is called as a bullish impulse. The small bearish move in an uptrend is termed as a retracement.

Similarly, in a downtrend in the Stock Market, the major downfall is called an impulse. A small upward move in a downtrend will be called a pullback.

If a trend changes from an uptrend to a downtrend and vice-versa, then it is called reversal.
