Harami

A small candle whose body fits inside the body of the big candle before it.

What it means

The move is losing strength: after a fall, a small green candle inside a big red one hints at a pause or turn.

What to watch

Confirmation from the next candle; a harami is weaker than an engulfing pattern.
