Tweezer Bottom
Two candles with matching or nearly matching lows. The same price was tested twice and buyers defended it both times.
Where it matters
Meaningful at a known support zone after a decline.
Faded candles are the trend before it, the band is the pattern, the dashed line is the level it formed at, and ✓ marks the confirming candle.

What confirms it
A close above the high of the second candle.
- 04
Where the idea is wrong
A close below the matching lows.
