First light often signals a stabilizing trend 'First light' is a bullish reversal candlestick pattern that appears during a downtrend, consisting of one large bearish candle and one large bullish candle. The first candle is a large bearish one, indicating that bearish forces are still strong, causing the price to drop significantly. The second candle opens lower, but then the bulls start to fight back, closing with a large bullish candle. The closing price of the second bullish candle must penetrate more than halfway into the body of the first bearish candle—the deeper it goes, the stronger the signal. This pattern suggests that bullish forces suddenly strengthen at the bottom, like the first light breaking through the darkness, signaling that the downtrend might be nearing its end. If this pattern appears at a key support level (such as near a previous low) forming a double-bottom structure, its reliability increases significantly. Additionally, if trading volume noticeably increases when the bullish candle appears, it indicates real capital entering the market, making the signal even more credible. 'First light' is a signal of the bulls starting a counterattack, suggesting we should pay attention and look for potential rebound or reversal opportunities.
