Hanging Man Candlestick

A bearish indicator that signals strong selling pressure, initially pushing the price up but closing near the low.

Harami

A reversal pattern seen in candlestick charting that appears when two candles form a reversal pattern. The first candle is large, continuing the existing trend. The second is much smaller, and its entire body fits inside the body of the first harami translates to “pregnant” in Japanese, the smaller candle being the child in the larger candle.

A bullish harami is formed in a downtrend: a big bearish candle is followed by a small bullish candle in the previous bar. A bearish harami occurs when a large bullish candle is followed by a small bearish candle in an uptrend. In both instances, the small secondary candle indicates a sudden halt in the trend’s momentum.

Reliability is moderate. Confirmation from the subsequent session is required prior to action. A harami candlestick with high volume on the first candlestick at a major level of support or resistance is more significant when used alone.

Example: A stock with a strong downtrend has a large bearish candle that is followed by a narrow range bull candle the body fits completely in the previous session. In the next session, the trader observes the price action closing above the harami pattern, confirming the reversal, and then a long entry is suggested with a stop just under the low of the first candle to clearly show the risk.

Harami Cross

A variation of the harami pattern that occurs when the second candle is a doji (a day in which the open and close prices are the same) instead of a small-bodied candle. The doji’s inability to move in either direction after the large range candle also strengthens the harami cross as a reversal indicator, since the market action is unable to break either way after the large trend candle, which is a strong exhaustion of trend momentum.

When a bullish harami cross forms in a downtrend, it’s a large bearish candle with a contained doji. A bearish harami cross is formed in an uptrend: A large strong bullish candle followed by a small doji. Both have to be confirmed by the next session before the reversal signal is followed.

The pattern tells you where the momentum has stalled and then the price action will show you if the reversal is going to follow through or not.

Example: When the equity markets are in a long bull run, a big bull market session is followed by a doji that is completely contained within the previous bull market candle. This is a complete indecision pattern (after a directional trading session) that indicates a lack of conviction at the top. The next session’s direction and close will determine if the harami cross reversal is confirmed and if so, positions are adjusted accordingly.

Hard Cap

The total supply of tokens or coins that can be created in a particular network is hard-coded into the network’s protocol. When the hard cap is reached, the supply will not be able to be increased anymore, it is not a policy that can be changed at will but it is a rule of the protocol and will need some changes to the protocol code.

The most commonly referenced is the 21 million cap on Bitcoin. The finite and predictable supply is intended as a design feature the hard cap shields the asset from inflationary supply growth typical of government currencies.

Hard caps are distinguished from inflationary designs, which have an unlimited number of supplies or supply additions at a scheduled time. Investors regard hard caps as hard cap aspects of tokenomics analysis. A fixed hard cap with increased demand is an obvious supply-demand bull case if the demand thesis is true.

Example: An investor interested in comparing two blockchain projects observes that one of them has a hard cap of 100 million tokens and the other has no supply cap. The investor believes it will be easier to predict the value of the capped project because there is a fixed amount of scarcity, whereas the uncapped project’s value assumes demand growth will always exceed the amount of new scarcity over the project’s life.

Hard Fork

A protocol upgrade on a blockchain that is not backward-compatible and therefore can permanently fork the chain. The old software can’t process blocks coded in the new software and vice versa. Generally, the coin at the split will be matched with equivalent balances on both chains.

Hard forks are used to upgrade a protocol, settle community disagreements, undo the impact of an exploit or alter basic economics, such as the supply cap, block size, and consensus mechanism. It is determined by which variant wins over the most miners, validators, developers and economic activity that the fork becomes viable or otherwise.

In most hard forks, the resulting chain becomes the dominant one, while the minority chain remains a smaller network of lower value and continues to function indefinitely.

Example: A cryptocurrency community discusses plans to increase the block size to boost throughput. Most members upgrade to the new software; some members stick to the old rules. Chains are broken at a certain block. They both pass on the transaction history till the split, and after the split, both will have the same number of the original coins and the new ones, the relative value of each chain will be determined by the market forces.

Hard Landing

A dramatic economic downturn after a central bank’s tighter monetary policy that leads to a sharp increase in rates but which is effective to quell inflation, but also plunges the economy into a serious recession. The analogy of the aircraft: A hard landing places the aircraft down safely but in a jarring manner, compared to a soft landing that places the aircraft down safely in a smooth manner.

Central banks try to achieve soft landings, that is, they raise rates sufficiently to dampen inflation without causing the economy to recede. In reality, monetary policy transmission is not certain, not immediate and is not precise. If it’s over-tightened, it will land hard and if it’s under-inflated, it will set the inflation and need to be done up later, with more effort.

Along with the inflation reduction that was the policy goal, hard landings also include increasing joblessness, shrinking credit, declining corporate profits and bear markets in equities. The cause is known and, in principle, correctable, as is the rate policy.

Example: When inflation is high, a central bank increases rates very quickly. A year on, inflation is down considerably, while credit is tightened, business investment has been slashed, unemployment has surged and GDP is in contraction for three quarters. Economists term the situation a hard landing as the inflation target is being achieved at the expense of a recession, a scenario that the same central bank is now under pressure to reverse with rate cuts.
