In the K-line chart, there’s one line that looks very strange: a small real body, an extremely long lower wick, and almost no upper wick.

Appearing at the bottom of a downtrend → it’s called a hammer line, a signal that bulls are about to push back.
Appearing at the top of an uptrend → it’s called a hanging man line, a signal that major players are distributing.

Same K-line, different position—different name, and the direction is completely opposite.

The market doesn’t care what the shape looks like, only where it appears. Those who only memorize the pattern but don’t care where it shows up will eventually be “hanged.”
