ALT The Strat 3-1-2 Reversal Combo cover slide by ForexBee. Yellow background showing both reversal sequences. Left: bullish 3-1-2U — green candle, red Outside Bar labeled 3, small red Inside Bar labeled 1 in a dotted box, then three green 2U candles rising. Right: bearish 3-1-2D — green candle, green Outside Bar labeled 3, small green Inside Bar labeled 1 in a dotted box, then three red 2D candles descending. Text explains a 3-1-2 combo happens when extreme volatility suddenly dies into a tight squeeze before violently breaking out to reverse the trend.
ALT Step 1 — Bullish Reversal (3-1-2U). Yellow background showing a green candle next to a large red Outside Bar labeled 3 showing heavy aggression from both sides, then a small green Inside Bar labeled 1 as indecision sets in, then three ascending green candles labeled 2U breaking progressively higher. Text explains after the Outside Bar tug-of-war and the Inside Bar squeeze, buyers took total control and broke the Inside Bar high — flipping the trend from bearish to bullish.
ALT Step 2 — Bearish Reversal (3-1-2D). Yellow background showing two red candles next to a green Outside Bar labeled 3 during a tug-of-war, then a small red Inside Bar labeled 1 as momentum completely stalls, then three descending red 2D candles labeled 2D dropping sharply lower. Text explains sellers won the squeeze — the aggressive tug-of-war ended with institutional sellers taking full control, driving price lower and flipping the trend bearish.
ALT Step 3 — The Pro Secret (Location and FTFC). Forex candlestick chart showing a 3-1-2U bullish reversal with Strat labels (3, 1, 2U) forming at a highlighted green FVG (Fair Value Gap) zone, followed by a strong ascending move. Text explains the 3-1-2 is powerful but location is everything — the combo must form at a major key level such as a Supply/Demand Zone, Order Block, or FVG. Combine with FTFC (Full Timeframe Continuity) to ensure higher timeframes are aligned in the same direction.
