Tristan's Devil Mark (Short)

"Devil's Mark" in trading refers to a specific candlestick pattern where a candle opens and moves significantly in one direction without creating a wick on that side. This creates an "inefficiency" in the market, and traders use this as a signal that price will likely return to that level to "rebalance" the imbalance and print the missing wick.
This strategy marks every green candle with no bottom wick using a purple downward wedge above the candle. This is highlighting a candle where buyers dominated from the open, but creating inefficiency below.
The purple wedge marks candles that opened at their lowest point and closed higher.
These candles indicate buyer dominance from the start of the period. In downtrends, a green candle with no bottom wick may indicate a potential short-term reversal.
Wait for the candle to close, and short it. Wait for the price to go below the bottom of the body of the marked candle.
