Paper Signal Lab field guide

Bitcoin candlestick patterns

Candlestick labels summarize how a completed BTC candle behaved. A hammer after a decline and a hanging man after an advance can have similar shapes but different interpretations.

Context before the label

  1. 1Use closed candles and identify the trend before the pattern.
  2. 2Compare body and wick proportions with the surrounding candles and nearest zone.
  3. 3Wait for subsequent price behavior before upgrading a pending observation to confirmed.

Keep the result in perspective

Crypto trades continuously, so traditional opening-gap rules do not always translate directly.
