Figuring out Candlestick Chart Patterns

By Brad Morgan

Candlestick patterns are established indicators that abet a trader to understand candlestick charts. This can be accessible when establishing simple systems that will update you when a trend is emerging so that you can initiate a trade.

The type of the candlesticks signify the high, low, open and closing price of stocks, currencies or commodities during a particular period. This period can be chosen by the trader.

The ecommended time period is 5 minutes but you may desire in particular situations to consume 15 minutes. Typically, longer periods are applied for longer term trading.

The body of the candle characterizes the difference between the open and close values. If it is white (or green/blue on a colored chart) the open is the lower boundary of the elliptical body and the price increased during the period you are examining. If it is black (or red on a colored chart then the opening price is the top boundary and the price plummeted.

The wick is the label given to the vertical lines that usually stick up from the top and down from the bottom of the candle body. The top of the upper area of wick is the highest stage that the price ever achieved during the period. The bottom of the lower wick is the low.

The trader can establish directly the price behavior from this analytical method. Bear markets are signified by green or white candles whilst bull markets are represented by red or black candles.

Aside from this, the high and low relative to open and close prices are rapidly clear. Then you may have an evidently definite candle without a wick.

It's called a Marubozu pattern. Prices never went more or lower than the opening and closing prices in this scenario.

The high value as opening price and low value as closing price is represented by the red or black candle. Adversely, green or white candle indicates the low was the opening price while the high was the closing price.

A relatively even upward or downward trend is signified by a long body. A reversal is determined by a long wick on the top or on the bottom.

In short, to ensure exact trend reading, candlestick must be read within the context of the preceding candlesticks. You then can go ahead to make more detailed candlestick patterns that will signify probable future trends. - 23162
