Dual Japanese Candlestick Patterns:

Engulfing Pattern:

The engulfing pattern comes in both bullish form when found at the bottom of a down trend and bearish form when found at the top of an up trend. The pattern is created by a large bodied candlestick that typically has a small wick. This candlestick must completley engulf the previous days candle.
