How the 2 Minute Red Bar Reversal alert works
Key point
The red bar reversal (RBR) pattern is based on a candlestick chart. The server signals this alert when a stock has gone up for three or more consecutive candles, and then it has a red candle. A candle is determined to be an up candle when the open of the candle is lower than the close of the candle. This is only determined at the close of the candle (based on the time-frame).
The description of the alert will say how many candles in a row were going the same direction. This information is also available as a filter.

You can decide to leave it blank if you want to receive more alerts, or you can fill it in to restrict the number of alerts you receive. This filter allows you to specify the quality of the alert. When you set a higher number for this filter, you are telling the alerts server to display only alerts that meet a higher quality standard, resulting in fewer alerts being shown.
