A bearish reversal pattern that continues the uptrend with a long white body. The next day opens at a new high then closes below the midpoint of the body of the first day.

Doji

Doji form when a security's open and close are virtually equal. The length of the upper and lower shadows can vary and the resulting candlestick looks like a cross, inverted cross or plus sign. Doji convey a sense of indecision or tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. Prices move above and below the opening level during the session, but close at or near the opening level.

Downside Tasuki Gap

A continuation pattern with a long black body followed by another black body that has gapped below the first one. The third day is white and opens within the body of the second day, then closes in the gap between the first two days, but does not close the gap.

Dragonfly Doji

A Doji line where the open and close price are at the high of the day. Like other Doji days, this one normally appears at market turning points.

Engulfing Pattern

The first day is characterized by a small body, followed by a day whose body completely engulfs the previous day's body.

Evening Doji Star
