PivotBoss Doji Reversal Setup

19 avr. 2018

PATTERN SUMMARY
1. The open and close price of the doji should fall within 10 percent of each other, as measured by the total range
of the candlestick.
2. For a bullish doji, the high of the doji candlestick should be below the ten-period simple moving average (H <
SMA(lO)).
3. For a bearish doji, the low of the doji candlestick should be above the ten-period simple moving average (L >
SMA(lO)).
4. For a bearish doji, one of the two bars following the doji must close beneath the low of the doji (C < L[l] or C <
L[2]).
5. For a bullish doji setup, one of the two bars following the doji must close above the high of the doji (C > H[l])
or C > H[2])
PATTERN PSYCHOLOGY
The doji candlestick is the epitome of indecision. The pattern illustrates a virtual stalemate between buyers
and sellers, which means the existing trend may be on the verge of a reversal. If buyers have been controlling a
bullish advance over a period of time, you will typically see full-bodied candlesticks that personify the bullish
nature of the move. However, if a doji candlestick suddenly appears, the indication is that buyers are suddenly
not as confident in upside price potential as they once were. This is clearly a point of indecision, as buyers are no
longer pushing price to higher valuation, and have allowed sellers to battle them to a draw-at least for this one
candlestick. This leads to profit taking, as buyers begin to sell their profitable long positions, which is heightened
by responsive sellers entering the market due to perceived overvaluation. This "double whammy" of selling
pressure essentially pushes price lower, as responsive sellers take control of the market and push price back
toward fair value.
