Assalamualaikum steemians


How are you? Hope so everyone would be safe and sound just like me as I am also safe Alhamdulillah...


My topic today for discussion is candlestick chart. I would like to discuss about its general explanation as well as I would love to share that how it works and important terms related to it......


Candlestick chart


Candlestick chart first of all is very helpful in the technical analysis of cryptocurrency price fluctuations that either they are increasing and decreasing and it is a kind of visual representation. They were used by traders and investors in all over the world in Japan centuries.

When I talk about candlestick chart then when we see upon chart then there is a specific time period that we all can see like it is represented as a day an hour or even a minute is also shown on chsrt.There are two main parts in which we can divide the chart and these parts are: body and wicks(Shadows second name of wicks).


When we talk about body of the candlestick then it is the representation of the price range in between the opening and closing prices during these time periods. If at chart body is filled with colours then it is the presentation of that the closing price is less than opening price. If we talk about opposite case with it then we can say that if body is not colored then closing price would be more or higher than opening price.


Wicks or shadow is another part of candlestick chart which extend from start (Top) and end (Bottom) of body and it shows high and low prices that they are reaching during a specific time period respectively. When I talk about length of wicks then it is also very important because it let us know about volatility or fluctuations in the price movement of a particular cryptocurrency.


Candlestick chart working


When I talk about candlestick patterns then there are different patterns that I am going to explain below:

1. Doji

If opening and closing prices would be very close to each other then we would see this kind of pattern which is known as Doji and it is the indication that in decision in market can results in any kind of reversal so this pattern is important in candlestick chart to understand.

2. Hammer

Hammer is also a pattern in candlestick chart which contains small body and a very long lower Shadow or wick.It is the indication of stepping in of buyers after decline in price of a particular currency and in other words we can say that it is the indication of reversal of bullish trend.

3. Shooting Star

Just like hammer, shooting star also has small body but long upper wick so the difference is that in hammer there was long lower shadow and here is long upper shadow and it is the indication of bearish trend and also an indication that sellers are taking control after an upward trend.

4. Engulfing

This is a patron that occurs when small candlestick is in girls by large candlestick but in an opposite direction and the trend whatever is going on,this pattern when occurs then it shows that there is a strong reversal going on or have to occur in the market.

These were some of the important patterns and their examples I have explained and shared with all of you and by following these candlestick patterns it becomes very easy for traders and investors to make the inform the decisions but candlestick analysis is never ever used alone for more precise predictions it is always used with technical indicators so that risk related to the decisions maybe managed in advance and maybe minimized by having a proper result.


Conclusion


In final words I must want to say that candlestick chart is always used for make analysis by traders and investors so that they may make some particular and informed decisions and for this I tried my best to explain candlestick chart basics as well as I have tried my best to explain some of the patterns that what it means about some specific patterns like Doji,Hammer, shooting star, engulfing then all these were indications of different things and I have explained in my best and simple words for all of you so now I want to say Allah Hafiz to all of you.


Thanks
