Candlestick Patterns · Bearish
Evening Doji Star
An evening star whose middle candle is a doji.
The middle candle is a doji after a bullish candle. The third candle closes back down into the first body.
This is an example of how traders often plan the pattern. It is not a promise that price will reach the target.
Identification
- The first candle is bullish.
- The middle candle is a doji.
- The third candle is bearish and closes into the first body.
Market context
Same structure as the evening star, with a doji as the stall.
Entry example
An example entry is below the third candle.
Stop-loss example
An example stop is above the doji high.
Target example
An example target is the open of the first candle.
Common mistakes
- Skipping the requirement that the third candle closes into the first body.
