BULLISH KICKING PATTERN (BKP)<\/strong>
\na Black Marubozu followed by a white one<\/p>\n

Characteristics:<\/strong>
\n1. The direction of the market is not important;
\n2. Day 1 has a Black Marubozu; and
\n3. On Day 2, there is a White Marubozu that gaps upward.<\/p>\n

Brief Explanation:<\/strong>
\nThe BKP is a strong sign that the market is headed upward. Unlike most other patterns, the previous market direction is not important for this pattern. The market is headed up with the BKP as the prices gap up the following day. The prices do not enter the prior day\u2019s range. Instead, they close with another gap.<\/p>\n

Notes:
\n1. Both are Marubozu, so both Day 1 and Day 2 should have only very small shadows, if ever they do have
\n2. The BKP\u2019s reliability is high, but a confirmation of the reversal on Day 3 is required (through a white stick, a large gap up or a higher close).<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
