What does it mean?
• Bar 1 – if the volume is high = supply has overcome demand
• Bar 1 – if the volume is low = no demand for higher prices
• Top reversals are strongest when an uptrend is in place

Why are they significant
They are often marked down on bad news
They represent two strong signs of strength
They show a past history of rebounding or springing from there

How do I trade them?
• Identify Climactic Action bar – closing price
• Identify the low of the bottom reversal
• Find a second bottom reversal and you can go long (more aggressive/higher risk)
• If it then breaches the climactic action bar, go long after confirmation (higher probability/lower risk)
