Quick Summary
Shape
Same as morning star but middle candle is a doji.
Common Trap
Treating the doji alone as the signal before pattern completes.
Context Rule
Doji adds indecision element; still requires strong bullish third candle.
When It Fails
- •Acting on doji before third candle confirms
- •Not at significant support level
- •Third candle closes weakly (small body)
- •Low volume throughout pattern formation
When It Works
- •At key support with clear downtrend preceding
- •Doji shows genuine indecision (long wicks)
- •Third candle gaps up from doji and closes strong
- •Volume pattern: decline → low → spike on third
