-===== Hammer =====
-The hammer is made up of one candlestick, white or black, with a small body, long lower shadow and small or nonexistent upper shadow. The size of the lower shadow should be at least twice the length of the body and the high/low range should be large relative to range over the last 10-20 days.
-After a decline, the hammer's intraday low indicates that selling pressure remains. However, the strong close shows that buyers are starting to become active again. Further strength is required to provide bullish confirmation of this reversal pattern.
-{{:chart_analysis:candlestick_bullish_reversal_patterns:bullrev2-hammer-nke.png|Nike Inc. (NKE) Candlestick Hammer example chart from StockCharts.com}}
-Nike (NKE) declined from the low fifties to the mid-thirties before starting to find support in late February. After a small reaction rally, the stock declined back to support in mid-March and formed a hammer. Bullish confirmation came two days later with a sharp advance.
-===== Morning Star =====
-The morning star consists of three candlesticks:
-  - A long black candlestick.
-  - A small white or black candlestick that gaps below the close of the previous candlestick. This candlestick can also be a doji, in which case the pattern would be a morning doji star.
-  - A long white candlestick.
-The black candlestick confirms that the decline remains in force and selling dominates. When the second candlestick gaps down, it provides further evidence of selling pressure. However, the decline ceases or slows significantly after the gap and a small candlestick forms. The small candlestick indicates indecision and a possible reversal of trend. If the small candlestick is a doji, the chances of a reversal increase. The third long white candlestick provides bullish confirmation of the reversal.
-{{:chart_analysis:candlestick_bullish_reversal_patterns:bullrev2-mornstar-brcm.png|Broadcom Corp. (BRCM) Candlestick Morning Doji Star example chart from StockCharts.com}}
-After declining from above 180 to below 120, Broadcom (BRCM) formed a morning doji star and subsequently advanced above 160 in the next three days. These are strong reversal patterns and do not require further bullish confirmation, beyond the long white candlestick on the third day. After the advance above 160, a two-week pullback followed and the stock formed a piecing pattern (red arrow) that was confirmed with a large gap up.
