M mgabriel01 Nov 3, 2008 #22 Quote from IronFist: Are you shorting upside down hammers, too? What are you doing when there's a hammer at the end of an uptrend? What do you do when the bottom wick on the hammer is longer than your stop loss? More... I may be calling an upside-down hammer a 'shooting star' there was one on the chart today I shorted it I am waiting for the hammer to form completely before making a trade (ie no earlier than the next bar) --- so the longer the shadow the better
