Bob...

Thanks for the candle definition link....

I'd say the candle stick pattern that I've called a Cherry Bomb is closer to a Gravestone Doji...

"The Bearish Gravestone Doji Pattern has more bearish implications than a Bearish Shooting Star Pattern."

However to be a true cherry bomb it has to close with a negative shadow... create a shadow below the open and closing below the open. Itis very high follow through at about 80% and I've documented it with chart research for myself.

The gravestone doesn't call for the shadow and the inverted umbrella doesn't have the previous positive candle or negative shadow.
