Some of you may be familiar with the way that a motorcycle shifts. But for those who don't, It looks like this

Now I want to know what gear I am in after performing a few up and down shifts. The program should work from neutral.

Sample input:

V^^

Sample output:

2

As you can see I downshifted once from N to 1 and upshifted twice to 2nd gear.

This is a code golf. Shortest answer in bytes wins.

Note: The input can be any 2 characters. Can be U and D for up and down or whatever you want. You cannot shift beyond 1st or 6th gear. If you are in 6th and upshift again it will stay in 6th. Good luck!
