The Incomplete Dark Cloud Cover is a Japanese Candlestick pattern warning of a potential bearish reversal. It is a pattern that requires confirmation, so if you were being conservative, you would only use this pattern as a warning - not necessarily a pattern to be acted upon. 
The pattern is formed when a white candle (i.e. price action where the close is higher than the open) is followed by a black candle (close lower than open) that opens higher than the white candle's close and the black candle closes above the mid-point of the white candle's body. This type of pattern is common in uptrends. This pattern occurred today on the All Ords. The last time it occurred was on February 15 near the top of the market - see chart below. A move below the mid-point of the white candle (yesterday's price range) - around 5000 - would be a further warning. A move below yesterday's low (4988) would be bearish. Any move down now should only be a short term correction - well, until it develops into something else that is.
