Details of the Doji Candle stick Pattern:
In a Doji pattern, the market explores its options both upward and downward, but cannot commit either way. After a long uptrend, this indecision manifest by the Doji could be viewed as a time to exit one's position, or at least scale back. Similarly, after a long downtrend, like the one shown above of General Electric stock, reducing one's position size or exiting completely could be an intelligent move.
It is important to emphasize that the Doji pattern does not mean reversal, it means indecision. Doji's are often found during periods of resting after a significant move higher or lower; the market, after resting, then continues on its way. Nevertheless, a Doji pattern is a great sign that a prior trend is losing its strength, and taking some profits might be well advised.
Details of the Doji Candle stick Pattern:
The Doji is a powerful Candlestick formation,
signifying indecision between bulls and bears. A Doji is quite often found at
the bottom and top of trends and thus is considered as a sign of possible
reversal of price direction, but the Doji can be viewed as a continuation
pattern as well.
A Doji is formed when the opening price and the
closing price are equal. A long-legged Doji, often called a "Rickshaw
Man" is the same as a Doji, except the upper and lower shadows are much
longer than the regular Doji formation.
The creation of the Doji pattern illustrates why the
Doji represents such indecision. After the open, bulls push prices higher only
for prices to be rejected and pushed lower by the bears. However, bears are
unable to keep prices lower, and bulls then push prices back to the opening
price.
Of course, a Doji could be formed by prices moving
lower first and then higher second, nevertheless, either way, the market closes
back where the day started.
