# CDLHIKKAKEMOD

## Summary

A four-candle pattern: two successively narrower inside bars, then a breakout bar, with the second candle closing near one extreme of its range. Bullish or bearish reversal signal. Bullish (+) or bearish (-) reversal; per the code's note it is significant in a downtrend (bull) or uptrend (bear), context the code does not verify.

## Notes

- Does not verify the prior trend (downtrend for bullish, uptrend for bearish) that this reversal pattern assumes.

## Inputs

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

## Outputs

- `outInteger` — +100 bullish hikkake bar, -100 bearish; +200 confirmed bullish, -200 confirmed bearish (confirmation adds another +/-100); 0 otherwise
