What is Gravestone Doji?
A tomb doji is a doji candle shaped like an inverted T (⊤) where the opening, closing and low prices are all the same and only the upper tail is long. Named after its resemblance to a tombstone, it is a strong bearish reversal signal that appears at the top of an uptrend.
Doji
⚪ Neutral
Interpretation: The price soared strongly during the day, but eventually the selling pressure brought the price down to the opening price. A complete defeat for the buying power.
