Candlesticks are the language of price. Each one tells a small story about the battle between buyers and sellers over a fixed period — and learning to read them is the foundation of all technical analysis.
Anatomy of a candle
Each candle shows four prices: खोलें, उच्च, कम and close. The body spans खोलें-to-close; the wicks (shadows) reach to the उच्च and कम. A close above the खोलें is usually drawn तेजी (often green); a close below is bearish (often red).
What the shape tells आप
A लॉन्ग body shows conviction; a small body shows indecision. लॉन्ग wicks show rejection — price went there and was pushed back. A लॉन्ग lower wick after a downtrend hints buyers stepped in; a लॉन्ग upper wick after a rally hints sellers did.
Reading context, not single candles
One candle in isolation means little. The skill is reading candles in sequence and at meaningful levels — a rejection wick at सहायता is information; the same wick in the middle of nowhere is noise.
Key takeaways
- Each candle shows खोलें, उच्च, कम, close — body plus wicks.
- लॉन्ग bodies = conviction; लॉन्ग wicks = rejection; small bodies = indecision.
- Candles matter most at meaningful levels, read in sequence not isolation.
