Hammer Pattern

What are Hammer Patterns?

Hammer patterns are identified by a small body at the top of the candlestick with a long lower shadow that is at least twice the length of the body, and little or no upper shadow. They occur after a price decline, signaling a potential bullish reversal. The long lower shadow of the hammer indicates that despite strong selling pressure during the session, substantial buying interest drove the price back up close to its opening level, suggesting a rejection of the lower prices.

What do Hammer Patterns Tell Us?

Hammer patterns tell us that despite a session's bearish momentum, substantial buying pressure emerged, possibly indicating that the market is reaching a turning point. If the hammer pattern is confirmed with a subsequent bullish day, it often signals that the lows may be sustained and the market could be transitioning from bearish to bullish. This is considered a strong signal for traders looking to enter long positions.
