Formation of a Dark Cloud Cover after a bullish candle does not augur well for the bulls and traders should avoid short term bets for the time being.
The Nifty50 which started with a gap-up failed to hold on to gains and closed the session lower on Monday, forming a bearish candle on the daily charts which also resembles a 'Dark Cloud Cover' kind of pattern on the daily charts.
A Dark Cloud Cover pattern is a bearish pattern which consists of two candles. It is formed when a large red candle, the one we saw in Monday's trading session partially covers the preceding bullish candle which was formed on Friday.
Also, the bearish candle has to close below the midpoint of the previous bullish candle.

Strong upmove witnessed in Friday’s session accompanied with smart recovery after erasing all the gains of Friday on intraday basis is still suggesting that this market lacked a direction perhaps owing to global trade related uncertainities.
