Bulkowski on the 'shooting star':
Day traders that I know depend on the shooting star more often than I think they should, but my statistics are based on the daily charts, not intra day ones. I found that the shooting star candle acts as a bearish reversal 59% of the time. I consider that "near random" performance.

, though, as we didnt leave bear market in the first place. It could be merely continuation signal for existing trend.
