Dragonfly Doji
A Dragonfly Doji is a bullish reversal candle where the open, close, and high are all at (or very near) the same price, with a long lower wick and little to no upper wick.
Similar to a Hammer but with no real body at all — sellers pushed price sharply lower intraday, but buyers fully reclaimed the session, closing right back at the open/high.
- Appears after a downtrend.
- Open and close are equal or nearly equal, at the top of the candle's range.
- Long lower wick, at least several times the size of any real body.
- Look for bullish confirmation on the following candle before entering.
- Stop-loss is commonly placed below the Dragonfly's low.
