BRVX Glossary · Doji candlestick · Updated September 25, 2026

A doji is a candlestick whose open and close are at or very near the same price, leaving almost no body and a cross-like shape. It signals indecision between buyers and sellers during that period and can hint at a reversal when it appears after a strong trend.

Types of doji

  • Standard doji: small wicks both sides.
  • Long-legged doji: long wicks both sides — large range, no winner.
  • Dragonfly doji: long lower wick, close near the high — buyers rejected lower prices.
  • Gravestone doji: long upper wick, close near the low — sellers rejected higher prices.

Reading it in context

A doji in a range means little. After a long rally into resistance, a doji shows buyers losing control; traders usually wait for the next candle to close in the opposite direction before acting.

On BRVX

On the BRVX TradingView chart the same doji looks different across timeframes: a 1-minute doji is noise, a weekly one is a signal many traders see. BRVX stock perpetuals trade on weekends, so their daily candles include Saturday and Sunday.

Questions about Doji candlestick

Is a doji bullish or bearish?

Neither by itself; its meaning depends on the trend before it and the candle after it.

What does a gravestone doji mean?

Buyers pushed price up and sellers pushed it back to the open, often read as bearish at the top of a rally.

How often do doji appear?

Often on low-volatility periods, which is why context matters.
