## What it means

Two candles in a row hit the same low (or high), one falling and one rising. The level was tested twice and held. It works best at the low or high of a recent move.

## How it is confirmed without repainting

Both candles have closed before the pattern counts, so their lows are final.

## When it fails

The next candle closes below the shared low. The level that held twice did not hold a third time.
