The same shape, upside down.

Four numbers, and a shape you have already met

First bid ₹30.00. Highest ₹32.40. Lowest ₹29.60. Last bid ₹29.80.

The body is small and sits near the bottom of the range. Above it runs a shadow of ₹2.60 — the record of prices that were reached and then abandoned. Turn yesterday's board through half a circle and this is what you get.

You have seen these four numbers before. At 04.02.02 this was the rumour morning, used there to show a rejection candle without giving it a name. The name is the only thing being added now.

Granthara's rules engine calls the geometry an inverted hammer shape and refuses to go further, for exactly the reason it refused yesterday.

Four names, one mechanism

Put the two lessons together and the whole of this corner of the chapter is a single table. A small body, one long shadow, and two questions: which side is the shadow on, and what was the week doing?

Shadow below, after a fall — hammer. Shadow below, after a rise — hanging man. Shadow above, after a fall — inverted hammer. Shadow above, after a rise — shooting star.

Four names, two questions, one geometry seen two ways up. Nothing else is being measured, and no fifth name is hiding anywhere: everything else in the literature is a variation on how long the shadow is or how small the body is.

Learning four names here is learning one idea twice. That is the whole of it.

What the board permits

It permits you to say that ₹32.40 was reached and not kept, and that the last bid finished below the first. It permits you to say that on this morning the upward test failed.

It does not permit you to say that the rumour was false, or that anyone was trapped, or that the rise is finished. A shooting star is not a sell. The literature is full of shooting stars followed by another three weeks of higher closes.

And it does not permit you to say the shape was inevitable. The rumour is a story that makes the morning readable; the four numbers would look exactly the same if nothing had been said at all.
