1) Bear cycle ends and bull cycle begins in March '09, with 4 Black, then 9 white candles in a row. At least 4 in a row would be considered white soldiers, I believe. The start of a cyclical bull market is foretold.
2) A Correction developed the week of 6/8/09. Nothing in the candles foretold anything very bearish. The correction ended in short order.
3)The week of 7/13/09, a new bullish run begins with 4 white candles in a row, Again, this foretells a bullish move, as no real correction occurs until September.
4) Beginning 11/16/09, a series of skinny bodies appeared. Lots of tops, hammers, and inverted hammers. No progress made bull or bear.
5) Beginning the week of 1/11/10, we see 4 black candles in a row now. Two of these are 'engulfing' candles, aka 'bearish engulfing'. These 4 candles could also be interpreted as 'black crows'. This foretells continuing bearishness.
