In a bearish market, firstly we will observe a bearish strength with a long bearish candlestick suggesting bear is in command.

Then we will see a second candlestick open with a gap below the first candlestick which move within a small range and closes at or very near to its open thus forming a doji.

Finally we will see the potential rally which indicate a reversal of trend by a long bullish candlestick on the third candlestick which open by a gap above previous doji candlestick without overlapping shadow.
