Steve, You are correct that it is a PAPER UMBRELLA. When it occurs at the end of an upswing it is called a HANGING MAN, and when it occurs at the end of a downswing it is called a HAMMER. By itself it is a reversal signal. What makes it an even more powerful reversal signal is the gap in the morning which makes the 2 day combo a SHOOTING STAR. If tomorrow gaps at the morning to the downside and closes negative, it then becomes an ABANDONED BABY, which confirms the SHOOTING STAR. They wont be text-book examples but close. With the ABANDONED BABY it should be a DOJI. seeya
