We know retailers see this as a sign of “reversal” so they will buy/sell

with their stop loss above/below the doji (depending if it's buy/sell.) To retailers it is a sign of reversal. For us it is a means of generating
liquidity.

FAILED FU - NEGATION

Candlestick
There is only so much price can manipulate, and
the negation is the second instance of manipulation
(after the first FU). Consider the banks power to be
exhausted. On rare occasions we will see a negation
being negated and that is simply x 3 manipulation -
