Doji

A candle where open and close are nearly identical — signal of market indecision.

Neutral Difficulty: ●○○○○ Reliability: 5/10

The doji forms a cross: tiny body, possibly long wicks. It tells you neither buyers nor sellers won the period.

A standalone doji means nothing — context in the trend is everything.

When to look

After an extended trend, a doji may signal exhaustion.

Confirmation

Wait for the next candle: if it invalidates the prior trend direction, that's a reversal signal.
