Triple Candlestick Patterns
Evening and Morning Stars

The morning star and the evening star are triple candlestick
patterns that you can usually find at the end of a trend. They
are reversal patterns that can be recognized through these three
characteristics:
The first candlestick is a bullish candle, which is part of a
recent uptrend.
The second candle has a small body, indicating that there could
be some indecision in the market. This candle can be either
bullish or bearish.
The third candlestick acts as a confirmation that a reversal is
in place, as the candle closes beyond the midpoint of the first
candle.
Three White Soldiers and Black Crows

The three white soldiers pattern is formed when three long
bullish candles follow a downtrend, signaling a reversal has
occurred. This type of triple candlestick pattern is considered
as one of the most potent in-yo-face bullish signals, especially
when it occurs after an extended downtrend and a short period of
consolidation.
The first of the three soldiers is called the reversal candle.
It either ends the downtrend or implies that the period of
consolidation that followed the downtrend is over.
For the pattern to be considered valid, the second candlestick
should be bigger than the previous candle’s body. Also, the
second candlestick should close near its high, leaving a small
or non-existent upper wick.
For the three white soldiers pattern to be completed, the last
candlestick should be at least the same size as the second
candle and have a small or no shadow.
The three black crows candlestick pattern is just the opposite
of the three white soldiers. It is formed when three bearish
candles follow a strong uptrend, indicating that a reversal is
in the works.
The second candle’s body should be bigger than the first candle
and should close at or very near its low. Finally, the third
candle should be the same size or larger than the second
candle’s body with a very short or no lower shadow.
Three Inside Up and Down

The three inside up candlestick formation is a trend-reversal
pattern that is found at the bottom of a downtrend. This triple
candlestick pattern indicates that the downtrend is possibly
over and that a new uptrend has started. For a valid three
inside up candlestick formation, look for these properties:
The first candle should be found at the bottom of a downtrend
and is characterized by a long bearish candlestick.
The second candle should at least make it up all the way up to
the midpoint of the first candle.
The third candlestick needs to close above the first candle’s
high to confirm that buyers have overpowered the strength of the
downtrend.
Conversely, the three inside down candlestick formation is found
at the top of an uptrend. It means that the uptrend is possibly
over and that a new downtrend has started. A three inside down
candlestick formation needs have the following characteristics:
The first candle should be found at the top of an uptrend and is
characterized by a long bullish candlestick.
The second candle should make it up all the way down the
midpoint of the first candle.
The third candlestick needs to close below the first candle’s
low to confirm that sellers have overpowered the strength of the
uptrend.
