Doji: body at most 10% of the candle’s range
65.0865.6366.1766.7267.26Doji
range 0.49 · body 0.02 (4%) · upper wick 0.23 (47%) · lower wick 0.24 (49%)
before it: a rise (closes in the 8 candles before)

Buyers and sellers pushed price both ways and the period closed about where it opened. On its own a doji is indecision. The usual correct trade answer at a doji is to wait for the next candle.

A doji after a rise. Higher or lower over the next six candles?
