Question

Hey hows it going? I just had a question i thought maybe someone could answer.
So when you see an englufing pattern what % of the time would you say a reversal happens ? Im assuming the higher timeframe the stronger the pattern. Is there a rough estimate of the % a reversal will happen when you see an englufing pattern?

This site is OK for statistics like that - ThePatternSite.com. But -

  • he used daily charts only
  • he used charts from the S&P500 only
  • the charts were dated between 1997 and 2007

With these provisos, engulfing patterns come out pretty well.
