# CDL2CROWS

## Summary

Three-candle bearish reversal pattern: a long white candle, then a black candle gapping up, then a black candle that opens inside the second body and closes down inside the first white body. A hit (-100) signals a bearish reversal; significant in an uptrend, which this function does not verify.

## Notes

- Does not verify the prior uptrend the pattern classically assumes for significance.

## Inputs

- `inPriceOHLC` — OHLC price series (open, high, low, close)

## Outputs

- `outInteger` — -100 on a detected pattern (always bearish), 0 otherwise. Never emits +100
