Let us draw your attention to the study on the Engulfing pattern graphical analysis. Steve Nison, the author of the book entitled "Japan candlesticks", refers the pattern to trend reversal models.
In the proposed study, we will research the Harami graphical pattern. In his book "Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques", Steve Nison characterizes this pattern as follows:

A big candle is a 'mother', and a small one is a 'child' or 'fetus.' " This pattern is believed to be reversal. We will check if it is true by using a large volume of historical data.
This article considers the graphical analysis pair patterns named the "Dark Cloud Cover" and the "Piercing Line".
The Dark Cloud Cover and Piercing Line are attributed to reversal patterns.
