FAQ

Is the Dragonfly Doji always a bullish signal?

No. While primarily a bullish reversal at the bottom of a trend, if it appears at the top of an uptrend, it can signal a bearish reversal (similar to a Hanging Man), though this is less common.

What does Bulkowski say about its reliability?

Bulkowskis Forschungsergebnisse deuten auf eine Reversierungsrate von nahezu 50 % in einem Abwärtstrend hin, was bedeutet, dass ein Bestätigungs-Candle am Folgetag erforderlich ist, um sicher gehandelt zu werden.

How does volume impact the validity of this pattern?

Above-average volume on the day of the Dragonfly Doji suggests a stronger rejection of lower prices and increases the likelihood of a trend change.

What is the ideal length for the lower shadow?

Technically, the longer the better. Most analysts look for a shadow that is at least two to three times the size of the 'body' (if any).

Where should a stop-loss be placed when trading this pattern?

A standard stop-loss is placed just below the low of the Dragonfly Doji's long lower shadow.
