This is an example of a breakout pattern, included to show that not only traditional candlestick patterns can be searched for.  It scans items that have been trading relatively flat for the previous 20 bars and then have an above-average-length white bar that closes near its high and whose high is higher than the highest high of the previous 20 bars.  It also must have an increasing volume over the last 3 bars.

This is a contrarian pattern described by Thomas Stridsman in his book 'Trading Systems and Money Management' that is shown by him to be very profitable.  He also includes additional rules on position sizing and stop loss methods.  The pattern has been modified from his version to include confirmation, i.e., the current bar must close up and also close higher than the previous day's close.  The pattern basically looks for stocks that have been trending too long and so are ready for a pullback.  The pattern Stridsman describes can be formulated as 'C<C1 AND C1<C2 AND C<C5 AND C5<C10', which we have modified to 'C1<C2 AND C2<C3 AND C1<C6 AND C6<C11 AND WC AND C>C1' for confirmation.

An example of a user-defined scan from Dave Paxton of Y2Kseminars.com.  It's purpose is to confirm a Bullish (Morning) Star and looks for either of two sequences:

(a) A black candle is followed by a bar that gaps below it, closes at or below the previous close and has a low that is the lowest of the last 5 bars. This bar is followed by a white candle that closes above the open of the starting black bar.

(b) A black candle is followed by a bar that gaps below it, closes at or below the previous close and has the lowest low of the past 5 bars. This bar is followed by a white candle that opens at or above the previous close. The next (last) bar is also white and closes above the open of the original black bar.

This is a breakdown pattern described by Gary Smith of TheStreet.Com in Technical Analysis of Stocks & Commodities Magazine, October 2000. It is included as an example of a non-traditional candlestick pattern.

It scans only items with a current price greater than 20 and an average daily volume greater than 500,000. It then finds items whose current close is higher than the highest close of the previous 5 bars and is also at least one point higher than the previous day's close. Finally the breakout day's volume must be at least 50% greater than the average daily volume over the previous 50 bars.
