The first candlestick in this pattern is bullish while the two remaining candlesticks are bearish.

Finally, the third candlestick also gaps higher from the closing of the second candlestick but it closes below the second.
The second and the third candlesticks in this pattern symbolize a crow sitting up and looking down. The rationale behind this pattern is that we have a higher closing in the first session and then in the second session, the candlestick opens higher but closes at or near the low. The second candlestick is not completely bad but it is the third candlestick that changes the outlook of the market. Because despite opening higher than the previous two candlesticks it closes deep in the red zone.
