Doji reaction forex strategy

Doji candle, drawn on our timeframe simply represents a range existing on lower timeframes. What we see as a reaction to doji star, can be considered a breakout by traders in shorter time ranges. This forex strategy uses this mini breakout to its advantage. What it looks for, is a breakout within the breakout. This is achieved by looking for a doji reaction formation, once the price break outside of BB tunnel boundaries.
