What is an abandoned baby?
The Abandoned Baby is the Gap version of the Morning Star and is one of the rarest and most powerful reversal signals among the three-rod patterns.
Unlike the regular Morningstar, the 2nd candle (Doji) is completely separated from the 1st and 3rd candles by a gap (price gap). Like a baby left alone by its parents.

🟢 Bullish Signal
Difference from regular Morningstar:
- Morningstar: No gap OK
- Abandoned baby: There must be a gap on both sides of the 2nd pole
Price Meaning
After the intraday selling force was completely exhausted and gapped down, the (Doji) buying force I came up with a gap up. It represents a complete defeat of the selloff.
