If you open a short position and liquidate right after the Doji is formed, the benefits we get will be quite maximum.
Shortly after the Doji, prices stopped briefly before finally falling down.
And look, the candles are all red, this means that the close price is lower than the open price and the buyers seem to be tired enough, so the sellers jumped and took control.
Finally, the price went back down to swing low and that means, a movement of 500 pips! Big accumulated profits that make you rich!

Another nice thing about this Fib Stick is, we don’t need to place limit orders at Fib levels.
We only need to pay attention to whether support or resistance will occur since we monitor the “zone”, without needing to know the level specifically.
