How to recognize it
- Three long bullish candles in a row.
- Each opens within, or close to, the previous candle's body.
- Each closes near its high and above the previous close.
What it suggests
Steady, sustained buying across three sessions. After a decline or a sideways base it often marks a change in control.
Where it matters
Most meaningful after a decline or a base. After an extended rally, three big candles can mean the move is overstretched. Watch the third candle: a shrinking body or a growing upper shadow shows buying is fading (sometimes called an advance block).
