This is a major top reversal pattern formed by three
candlesticks. The first candlestick is a long white
body; the second is a doji characterized by a higher
gap thus forming a doji star. The third one is a black
candlestick with a closing price, which is within the
first day’s white real body. It is a meaningful
top pattern.
Recognition Criteria:
1. Market is characterized by uptrend.
2. We see a white candlestick in the first day.
3. Then we see a Doji that gaps in the direction of the
previous uptrend on the second day.
4. Finally the third day is a black candlestick.
Explanation:
The first white body, while the market is in an uptrend,
shows the continuing bullish nature of the market. Then
a Doji appears showing the diminishing power of the
longs. The strong black real body on the third day proves
that bears have taken over. An ideal Bearish Evening
Doji Star Pattern has a gap before and after the middle
real body. The second gap is rare, but lack of it does
not take away from the power of this formation.
Important Factors:
The Doji may be more than one, two or even three.
Doji’s gaps are not important.
The reliability of this pattern
is very high, but still a confirmation in the form of
a black candlestick with a lower close or a gap-down
is suggested.
