I like candlesticks with long tails. I don't have hard evidence, but I think tails are more reliable than any other candlesticks. Of course, you don't need candlestick charts to identify tails. They are clearly visible on regular bar charts, too.

XMSR tested its 60-period EMA on its 5-minute chart and formed a long bullish tail. This was a potential reversal situation. We placed a buy stop just above this bar.

Selling half to capture a 22 cent gain. Move stop to breakeven.
