Both candlestick patterns have different winning accuracy. But as a forex trader, I prefer the bullish pin bar over the inverted hammer pattern. Because inverted hammer mainly shows slow down of the bearish trend while bullish hammer pattern shows a false breakout of support zone, a strong symbol of reversal in the market. Because market makers always try to give a false breakout before more significant market trends. That's why bullish hammer has a higher winning ratio in technical analysis.
