    Could someone help me understand the significance of these candles on the daily chart of the SPY and SDS?

    They're possible reversal candles...but they must be confirmed. In other words, tomorrow or soon after SPY would need to close below the close of the hanging man candle, preferably below the low of it, to confirm a short-term reversal. Same for SDS, just opposite direction.

    I'm sorry I'm not having any luck posting a chart. I tried to attach it but I'm not doing something right.

    Both $VIX and $VXV (N.B., $VXV open = close) ended with inverted hammers...
