Dojiopen aur close lagbhag same, ek line jaisi candle

A doji is a candlestick where the open and close are nearly the same price, so the body is a thin line with wicks above and below. It tells you that in that period, buyers pushed price up and sellers pushed it down, but neither won by the close. On its own a doji means indecision, not reversal. Its meaning depends on where it appears. A doji after a long rally in SBI at a known resistance, say ₹820, suggests buyers may be tiring and deserves attention, especially if the next candle closes lower. A doji in the middle of a sideways range means little. Variations include the long-legged doji with big wicks, the dragonfly with a long lower wick, and the gravestone with a long upper wick. Wait for confirmation from the following candle rather than trading the doji alone.
