Two Doji Forex Trading Strategy Example


Two consecutive doji candlesticks are spotted on the Euro/Dollar daily chart. I mark the upper and lower doji borders and wait for a breakout either to the upside or downside.The third candlestick broke out to the upside. I bought the currency pair @ 1.3078 with stop loss 2 pips below the candlestick @ 1.2975.

Calculating the profit target: Total risk x 1.5

Total Risk: 1.3078 - 1.2975 = 103 pips
Price Objective: 103 pips x 1.5 = 155 pips @ 1.3233
