How the 60 Minute Topping Tail alert works

This alert signals the appearance of a topping tail pattern on a traditional 60-minute candlestick chart. Components of a topping tail pattern include:

Topping tail on a 60 minute chart: three green candles, then a small-bodied red candle with a long upper wick
  • a red candle with 3 preceding green or bullish candles
  • The last candle has a small real body (the space between the opening and closing prices), which is often red, indicating a bearish candle
  • The upper shadow (or tail) of the last candle is typically longer than the lower shadow. The tail typically extends well above the real body

This often suggests that after an uptrend, sellers have stepped in to resist further price increases, indicating a shift from bullish to bearish sentiment.

Key point

The quality value on a scan using the "60 Minute Topping 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%.
