long-legged doji
A doji candle with very long lines on both sides, showing price swung far up and far down but ended where it started.
The fuller meaning
A doji with long upper and lower wicks: wide swings in both directions within the period, yet the close is back near the open. It shows strong indecision; at the end of a strong rally it can warn of a pause, but in a sideways market dojis are common and usually unimportant.
