Bearish Belt Hold
BearishReversal1 candleReliability:
After an uptrend, a long bearish candle opens right at its high and closes near its low — sellers take control from the open.
Description
A long-bodied bearish candle with no upper shadow because the open coincides with the high, closing near the low with a very short lower shadow.
Market psychology
Right at the open, sellers switch to decisive selling with no early buying at all.
How to trade
A weak standalone signal — wait for the next candle to confirm; enter on a break of the belt-hold low, stop above its high.
Confirmation
The next candle closes lower, stronger at resistance.
