<< And does the pattern on the MMM chart have a name?>>

MMM has this great upper trendline, which repelled all advances since its beginning at the high in 1997. Right now it passes in the 132-33 area. If the stock gets there, it will probably get sold.

The same line might be the upper line of a large multi-year ED – shaped formation, best seen on the monthly chart. MMM sports bearish MACD divergencies both on the monthly and weekly charts. On the daily, the action consists of a long series of ‘threes”.

On the hourly, the stock had a (so far) 3-wave rally off the low on September 30. The C or 3 may or may not be complete right here, at 162% of wave A or 1. Nice bearish MACD div’s on the 15-min chart. fwiw.

Hanging Man / Dragonfly Doji Bearish

It appears to fit the description

Pattern: Reversal
Trend: Bearish
Reliability: Low/Moderate

How to Identify it

Small real body at the upper end of the trading range
Lower shadow at least twice as long as the real body
No (or almost no) upper shadow

What it Means

There is a sharp sell off after the market opens during an uptrend. However, by the end of the trading day, the market closes at or near its high for the day. This signifies the potential for further sell-offs. Since the certainty for a Hanging Man indicator is low, the trend reversal can be confirmed by a black candlestick or a large down gap on the next trading day accompanied by a lower close. If the open and the close are identical, the indicator is considered a Dragonfly Doji. The Dragonfly Doji has a higher reliability associated with it than a Hanging Man.
