Jamaloodeen et al.: Analysis of Predictive Power of Japanese Candlesticks A STATISTICAL ANALYSIS OF THE PREDICTIVE POWER OF JAPANESE CANDLESTICKS Mohamed Jamaloodeen, Georgia Gwinnett College Adrian Heinz, Georgia Gwinnett College Lissa Pollacia, Georgia Gwinnett College Japanese Candlesticks is a technique for plotting past price action of a specific underlying such as a stock, index or commodity using open, high, low and close prices. These candlesticks create patterns believed to forecast future price movement. Although the candles’ popularity has increased rapidly over the last decade, there is still little statistical evidence about their effectiveness over a large number of occurrences. In this work, we analyze the predictive power of the Shooting Star and Hammer patterns using over six decades of historical data of the S&P 500 index. -

Candlestick—The Main Mistake of Economy Research in High Frequency Markets
International Journal of Financial Studies Article Candlestick—The Main Mistake of Economy Research in High Frequency Markets Michał Dominik Stasiak Department of Investment and Real Estate, Poznan University of Economics and Business, al. Niepodleglosci 10, 61-875 Poznan, Poland; [email protected] Received: 4 August 2020; Accepted: 1 October 2020; Published: 10 October 2020 Abstract: One of the key problems of researching the high-frequency financial markets is the proper data format. Application of the candlestick representation (or its derivatives such as daily prices, etc.), which is vastly used in economic research, can lead to faulty research results. Yet, this fact is consistently ignored in most economic studies. The following article gives examples of possible consequences of using candlestick representation in modelling and statistical analysis of the financial markets. Emphasis should be placed on the problem of research results being detached from the investing practice, which makes most of the results inapplicable from the investor’s point of view. The article also presents the concept of a binary-temporal representation, which is an alternative to the candlestick representation. Using binary-temporal representation allows for more precise and credible research and for the results to be applied in investment practice. Keywords: high frequency econometric; technical analysis; investment decision support; candlestick representation; binary-temporal representation JEL Classification: C01; C53; C90 1. Introduction While researching any subject literature, often one can notice that some popular methods in scientific research are copied and used without second thought by further researchers. Nowadays, the vast majority of papers pertaining to the analysis of course trajectory on financial markets and connected prediction possibilities use historical data in the form of a candlestick representation (or its derivatives such as daily opening prices, usually called daily prices, etc.) (Burgess 2010; Kirkpatrick and Dahlquist 2010; Schlossberg 2012). -

THREE ADVANCING WHITE SOLDIERS Like much of the candlestick terminology, this pattern has a military association. It is known as the three advancing white soldiers (see Exhibit 7.36) or, more commonly, three white soldiers. It is a group of three white candlesticks with consecutively higher closes. If this pattern appears at a low price area after a period of stable prices, then it is a sign of strength ahead. The three white soldiers are a gradual and steady rise with each white line opening within or near the prior session's white real body. Each of the white candlesticks should close at, or near, its highs. It is a 144 The Basics EXHIBIT 7.36. Three Advancing EXHIBIT 7.37. Advance Block EXHIBIT 7.38.

While there is a wealth of information about trading available, BigTrends.com has put together this concise, yet powerful, compilation of the most meaningful analytical tools. You’ll learn to create and interpret the same data that we use every day to make trading recommendations! This course is designed to be read in sequence, as each section builds upon knowledge you gained in the previous section. It’s also compact, with plenty of real life examples rather than a lot of theory. While some of these tools will be more useful than others, your goal is to find the ones that work best for you. Foreword Technical analysis. Those words have come to have much more meaning during the bear market of the early 2000’s. As investors have come to realize that strong fundamental data does not always equate to a strong stock performance, the role of alternative methods of investment selection has grown. Technical analysis is one of those methods. Once only a curiosity to most, technical analysis is now becoming the preferred method for many. But technical analysis tools are like fireworks – dangerous if used improperly. That’s why this book is such a valuable tool to those who read it and properly grasp the concepts. The following pages are an introduction to many of our favorite analytical tools, and we hope that you will learn the ‘why’ as well as the ‘what’ behind each of the indicators. -
How to Day Trade Using the ARMS Index
How to Day Trade Using the ARMS Index ARMS Index – Brief Overview The Arms index is a market breadth indicator used mostly by active traders to forecast intraday price movements. The Arms index was developed by Richard Arms in the 1960’s and is commonly referred to as the TRIN, which stands forTr ading Index. The TRIN or Arms index determines the strength of the market by taking into account the relationship between advancers, declineers, and their respective volume. In theory, if there is broad market strength – all boats rise. Conversely, if the broad market is tanking, stocks are likely going lower on the sh0rt-term. In this article, you will learn key factors and strategies for how to use the Arms Index to help with your trading. 4 Quick Things to Know About the ARMs Index #1 – Understanding the Arms Index (TRIN) For all its complexity in terms of number of calculations performed in real-time, the Arms Index is pretty simple to visually understand. The indicator fluctuates around the zero-line. Depending on where the TRIN indicator is relative to the zero-line, the market can be viewed as either overbought or oversold. In this regard, the Arms index is similar to other oscillators in that it fluctuates around fixed values and provides overbought and oversold conditions. One of the most important aspects of the TRIN/Arms index is that it not only shows how many stocks are advancing and declining but also includes volume which brings additional confidence to signals. Think about it, would you want to take a buy or sell signal if a stock is up 100% on 100 shares? I know this is an extreme example, but imagine if a few thinly traded stocks had the ability to wildly swing the values on the Arms Index. -
