What is a shooting star?

Shooting star candle stick pattern happens when the bulls push the market up from the opening price and fail to sustain against the pressure of bears. The market comes back near to the opening price and closes with a little loss. This happens when the bears have upper hand than the bulls. A shooting star candle stick will have a long upper wick, small lower body, small or no lower wick. If such a candle occurs in a bull market, it is called as shooting star, if the same happens in a bear market then it is called as inverted hammer. They reverse the matket trend. A shooting star seems to have occurred with Nifty 50 and BSE sensex on 22nd June, making the analysts to believe the beginning of near term correction phase. This is confirmed with another long bearish candle on the next day, 23rd June 2017.

What should an investor do?
