Excuse the interrupt, but IQC would confirm your interpretation. (If each day's high is lower than the previous day's, I think that's a downtrend, but agree it's confusing because the index went UP on friday, tho the high was lower.)

"Hammer is a potentially bullish pattern which occurs during a downtrend. It is named because the market is hammering out a bottom.
real body is at the upper end of the trading range
long lower shadow about 2 to 3 times the real body
color of real body is not important
confirmation is suggested

Today, sure enough, spinning top - which isn't confirmation (or negation). Especially if it isn't a downtrend :-)
