Piercing Pattern

Today we will be looking at the piercing pattern. The piercing pattern is made up of two candlesticks, the first one black, the second one white, both with fairly large bodies and small tails (shadows). The white candlestick must open below the black candlestick and close at least half way up the body of the black candlestick. The piercing pattern is the opposite of a dark cloud cover and similar to a bullish engulfing pattern.

Application

Just like a bullish engulfing pattern, the piercing pattern is a reversal of a downtrend, therefore, it is considered bullish. The theory behind it is the bears have been in control of the stock (during the downtrend) and then the stock opens below the close of the first candle and the bulls take over.

*Asterisk – This is based upon a starting bank of $10,000 in September 2009. These results are hypothetical trading results. The entry and exit prices quoted in these results were the live market prices at the time advisory communications were sent to clients. The exact price at which clients traded these recommendations will vary, as will the size of the position. These are some of the limitations of relying on hypothetical results. Equity CFD results are net of 0.1% brokerage, and spreads have been taken into consideration for Forex & Index CFD trades. Please note that fees, commissions, and spreads vary between brokers, and clients actual result may vary from these hypothetical results due to differing trading costs.
