• Bearish Meeting Lines is similar to a Dark Cloud Cover in that the stock gaps in the direction of the prevailing bullish trend and then reverses.
• The Dark Cloud is more bearish because it closes at least half way into the prior session’s bullish candle after gapping up; while the bearish Meeting Lines candle merely closes at or near to the close of the bullish candle.
• The Meeting Lines pattern is considered stronger if both the bullish and bearish candles are relatively long real bodies.
• There should be little or no wicks at the point where the two candles meet.
• This pattern needs confirmation with a bearish follow through candle the next session.
• As always, increased volume will confirm that the bears have stepped in at this level and that higher price levels have been rejected.
• The Bearish Meeting Lines pattern is not seen that frequently.
