  • The first candle of the formation is a long dark candle and the second is white.
  • The open of the second candle is higher than the close of the first candle and the close is below the open of the first candle.
  • Western technical analysis refers to the formation as an “Inside Day” when the both the real body and the shadows of the second candle are “inside” the first candle.
  • The formation generally requires a follow through confirmation candle.
  • The formation is more powerful when both of the candles are longer as opposed to shorter.
  • The second candle can dictate the strength of the reversal of the formation by closing higher up into the first candle’s trading range.
