Abandoned baby Evening Star signal

This is the most powerful evening star signal. This type of signal has a gap between the first day's high and second day's low AND a gap between the second day's low and third day's high. The gaps represent extremeness. The first gap signifying exuberance. It is followed immediately by an indecisive signal. Supply at this point equals demand. Not a good thing if you are a bull. The second gap is a visual representation of the bears taking control of the stock with great force. Becoming a bear at this point is the correct approach.
