Gravestone Doji Candlestick: What Does It Mean?

A Gravestone Doji is a bearish candlestick pattern with a very short or preferably invisible body and a long upper shadow. Ideally, the open, low, and close prices should be relatively at the same level. It usually appears at the top of an uptrend and anticipates a trend reversal. The longer is the upper shadow where the more bearishness should be expected.

The Gravestone Doji usually shows up where the resistance level is forming, which can be used for future reference whenever the price comes back to test the same level again.
