Does a doji always mean reversal?

A doji does not always mean reversal; it signals indecision and can resolve as either a continuation or a reversal depending on context. The doji pattern does not mean reversal, it means indecision, and dojis are often found during periods of resting after a significant move higher or lower. Although a doji can indicate that a reversal of price direction is in progress, it can also act as a continuation pattern where prices hover at their current value.
Always wait for the next candle to confirm direction.
