Morning Doji Star - Bullish

This candlestick pattern is a variation of the Morning Star pattern. A three-day bullish reversal pattern, which consists of three candlesticks will look something like this: The first being a long-bodied red candle that extends the current downtrend. Next comes a Doji that gaps down on the open. After that comes a long-bodied green candle, which gaps up on the open and closes above the midpoint of the body of the first day. It is more bullish than the regular morning star pattern because of the existence of the Doji.

The bearish version of the Morning Doji Star pattern is the Evening Doji Star candlestick pattern. 

Inputs:

Traditionally, this candlestick pattern is recognized in conjunction with a specific trend direction, i.e. it might be important for the pattern if the price has been generally going up or down. The ‘Detect Trend Based On’ option allows you to specify which of the following methods to use to detect the trend:

• SMA50 - the indicator compares the current price of the symbol to its Simple Moving Average (SMA) with the length of 50. If the current price is below the SMA, this price movement is considered a downtrend. If the price is above the SMA, it is an uptrend.
• SMA50, SMA200 - the indicator separately compares the current price to the SMA50 and the SMA50 to SMA200. If the current price is above the SMA50 and SMA50 is above SMA200, this is considered an uptrend. If the price is below SMA50 and SMA50 is below SMA200, this is a downtrend.
• No detection - the indicator does not take price trend into account.

By comparing two different SMAs, the 'SMA50, SMA200' option only detects stronger trends. When the trend is weak and the condition above is not met, no patterns will be detected. In contrast, the 'SMA50' option will also detect weaker trends.
