Candlesticks as Price Stories

What Is a Candlestick?

Each candle represents price action for a fixed time period — 1 minute, 5 minutes, 1 day. Every candle carries four numbers: Open, High, Low, Close (OHLC).

The body is the range between open and close.
The wicks (shadows) show the high and low reached during that period.
A green/white candle means close > open (buyers won that period).
A red/black candle means close < open (sellers won).
