Two (or more) adjacent candles with matching highs (top) or matching lows (bottom), showing the same price rejected twice.
How traders use it: Most useful at a planned level. Matching extremes also create equal highs/lows, so watch for a sweep as well as a hold.
Common mistake: Treating it as a wall when it can be a liquidity target.
