The answer is B. When a bearish gap appears during a strong uptrend, it indicates a shakeout to scare out weak hands.

Besides, the lesson shared highlights why two-candlestick patterns are about context and confirmation, not just candle shapes. The “50% midpoint rule” is especially useful — the depth of penetration clearly shows who controls the market.

I pay the most attention to Engulfing patterns and Harami Crosses. Engulfing candles signal a decisive shift in control, while a Harami Cross often warns that momentum is exhausted, prompting me to slow down and wait for confirmation.

I also like the discussion on Thrusting Lines and gaps, which reminds me that not every counter-move is a real reversal. If price can’t reclaim the midpoint, I treat it as an attempt, not a signal, and stay patient. Over time, this discipline has helped me avoid many false breakouts and unnecessary trades.
