Hello everyone
Hope everyone is doing very great just like me. I'm here to work on the homework from our cryptoprofessor @stream4u on how to read candlestick charts and other intending questions.
INTRODUCTION
Candlestick charts are a type of financial chart for tracking the movement of securities. They have their origins in the centuries-old Japanese rice trade and have made their way into modern day price charting. Some investors find them more visually appealing than the standard bar charts and the price actions easier to interpret.Source.
However, There are two Candle sticks, we have and as can be seen in the chart above. There are the;
BULLISH CANDLE STICK
This bullish is the Green Candle stick which is used to show an uptrend pattern. Bullish candlestick shows buying pressure and also show the entry points for long trades which can help predict when a downtrend is about to turn around to the upside.
BEARISH CANDLE STICK
Unlike the Bullish Candle Stick, Bearish Candle Stick is the Red Candle stick which is used to show an downtrend pattern. It has a white or hollow candlestick means that the closing price was greater than the opening price.
However, it has similar features with bullish but a little differences. These features of this candle stick represents the opening price, the closing price, the high price, and the low price while the body represent the closing price was greater than the opening price.
EXPLAIN WITH CANDLE CHART, WHAT ARE THE TIME FRAMES AVAILABLE THAT WE CAN SET INTO THE CHART, AND WHY IT NEEDS TO CHANGE THE CANDLE TIME FRAME?
Moreover, The time frame of the candle stick chart usually based on the type of a trader, the nature, the volume of the trade and signal for the basis of trading decision.
TIME FRAME
The time frame is a certain period of time that is determined to observe price movements. Each Time Frame has a different price movement.
In general, there are time frames of 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month.
In the above timeframe, those candlestick is found on the chart. With the many time frame choices, it is easier for us to analyze the direction of price movements on the chart.
