Investopedia explains 'Dark Cloud Cover'
Essentially, the large black candle is forming a "dark cloud" over the preceding bullish trend.
The dark cloud must have a closing price that is:
1) within the price range of the previous day, but
2) below the mid-point between open and closing prices of the previous day.
