What the doji is
Open and close are almost equal. Buyers and sellers are in a tie.
Picture a tug of war where both teams pull hard, but when the whistle blows the flag is right back in the middle. A doji candle is that tie: price moved up and down, but it closed almost exactly where it opened. Nobody won this round.
