No. In that case, Candlestick will be looking ULTA.
Dragonfly Doji - Open & close are the same at highs
Gravestone Doji - Open & close are the same at lows
Bearish & Bullish depends on whether its formed on DOWNTREND or UPTREND.

Isn't a bearish dragonfly doji called a gravestone doji? I mean they are exact mirror images.

Dragonfly Doji is of two types: Bullish & Bearish, depends on Downtrend & Uptrend where it is formed.
Dragonfly Doji Vs Hanging Man: The Bearish Dragonfly Doji Pattern is a rare single candlestick pattern that occurs at the top of an uptrend. It is very similar to the Hanging Man Pattern, except on a Dragonfly Doji the opening and closing prices are nearly identical (no body). When markets manage to close at the same price as they open it suggests more uncertainty about future trend than even a small candle. That makes the Bearish Dragonfly Doji more reliable than a Hanging Man offering a stronger bearish signal.

Why is Hanging Man considered Bearish?The idea of a small body is that the stock opened higher, made a low and then bulls were in control and took the price to a new high, but the stock closed lower. Is this not closer toa dragonfly doji, which is a bullish sign?Actually, the next day matters more whatever the formation.Correct me if I am wrong.RegardsRayOn Wed, Dec 2, 2009 at 11:26 AM, BALAJI Jayaraman <bctbalaji@gmail.com > wrote:
Friends,
INFOSYS TECH is not a SELL CALL yet --- its only an observation posted for analysis.
Wait for confirmation to take any position on INFY.
BTW, I am never in favor of Short calls. May be thats my weakness being a PERMA Bull. If the market falls, I rather prefer to take rest or vacation than Shorting.

To confirm a Hanging Man, you should wait for the next candle. The next candle should be a bearish candle. If the next candle gaps down it is a stronger signal that a top has been reached. If the candle is bullish the uptrend is still in effect.
Sample Hanging Man formation from NET:

Trading at all skill levels evokes emotions that generate great illusions.
Today's excitement won't move tomorrow's markets
Don't let that small voice of ego tell you that you have special talents.
