http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/board.asp?board_id=982  

Our system posted a BUY-IF today. The previous SELL recommendation was issued on 01.25.2008 (7) days ago, when the stock price was 0.0790. Since then COPI has fallen -11.39% .



A bullish pattern has developed and a BUY-IF alert is issued today. The task is now to confirm the validity of this bullish pattern. We will guide you through this process but the prime star of this game is nobody but you. First you must do your homework. A good starting point may be to keep an eye on after-hours and futures trading to get preliminary hints about the direction of the market. Related news, events, economic data, and the world stock markets should also be closely followed prior to confirmation session.

There are three possible cases of confirmation. You have to follow the next session carefully to check if these cases will hold or not:

Definition:Bullish Harami Pattern is characterized by a small white real body contained within a prior relatively long black real body. “Harami” is an old Japanese word for “pregnant”. The long black candlestick is “the mother” and the small candlestick is “the baby”.

Recognition Criteria:

1. The market is in a bearish mood characterized by downtrend.
2. Then we see a long black candlestick.
3. We see a white candlestick on the following day where the small white real body is completely engulfed by the real body of the first day. The shadows (high/low) of the second candlestick are not necessarily contained within the first body, however it's preferable if they are.


Explanation:

The Bullish Harami Pattern is a sign of disparity about the market’s health. While the market is characterized by downtrend and bearish mood; there is heavy selling reflected by a long, black real body however it is followed by a small white body in the next day. This may signal a trend reversal since the second day’s small real body shows that the bearish power is diminishing.

Important Factors:

The decisive fact about this pattern is that the second candlestick has a minute real body relative to the prior candlestick. Furthermore this small body is completely inside the larger one. The Bullish Harami Pattern does not necessarily imply that a rally will follow. Market usually enters into a congestion phase following the Bullish Harami.

We may need a third day confirmation to be sure that the downtrend has really reversed. This confirmation of the trend reversal may be signaled by a white candlestick, a large gap up or by a higher close on the third day.
