BEAR:
-Biggest candle late in a short term trade signaling that it might be an exhaustion candle followed by selling - Overextended bull run, profit taking by bulls inevitable in a short term -bears opening short seeing such a parabolic move, they know that bull will take profit at some point soon.
BULL:
-TREND is in tact, so pullback might be brief (one candle for example)
This is a high risk/high reward trade trying to catch the top.
Initial target is the open of the last bull bar, which is 1:3 Risk to reward.
If bears won't be able to push lower, will there is a possibility to 2:1, otherwise will manage on the go.
In such strong upside moves, retracements are brief so profit taking at 30% retracement of final wave is reasonable thing to do.
