How the 10 Minute Bottoming Tail alert works
This alert signals the appearance of a bottoming tail pattern on a traditional 10-minute candlestick chart. Components of a bottoming tail pattern include:
- A small body bullish candle with 3 preceding red or bearish candles
- The last candle has a small real body (the space between the opening and closing prices), which is often green or white, indicating a bullish candle
- The lower shadow (or tail) is significantly longer than the upper shadow. The tail typically extends well below the real body
This suggests that after a downtrend, buyers have stepped in to support the price, indicating a shift from bearish to bullish sentiment. In order for this alert to trigger, there must be 3 preceding red candles before the bullish candle.

For '10 Minute Bottoming Tail' alerts, you have the option to use an alert specific filter. This filter is located immediately to the right of the corresponding alert and is always optional. You can decide to leave it blank if you want to receive more alerts, or you can fill it in to restrict the number of alerts you receive. This filter allows you to specify the quality of the alert. When you set a higher number for this filter, you are telling the alerts server to display only alerts that meet a higher quality standard, resulting in fewer alerts being shown.

Key point
The quality value on a scan using the "10 Minute Bottoming Tail" represents the grade based on how closely the stock chart matches the ideal shape of the stock pattern. 0% would mean that there was no match at all. Of course, if a stock pattern is this poor a match, then we are unlikely to report an alert. 100% would be an ideal match. Again, this would be an ideal and extreme case. Few if any alerts come close to 100%.
