Author’s Note:

Understanding price action is a core skill that enhances the analysis of any price chart. Candle charting provides simple yet detailed insight into the state of market conditions that can be applied to clarify the context of past, present, and future price action. That is why candle charting is a primary component underlying price action analysis. Learning about price action and candle patterns is quite straightforward but using them effectively in real live market conditions takes plenty of time and practice in order to build experience and develop skill. Studying and practising with chart examples is a great way to condense years of experience in the market. That is why the majority of content here is focused on detailed case studies that outline price action and candle patterns before, during, and after their development. In doing so a clearer understanding of charting can be gained due to the process being very similar to real live market conditions, except in a more convenient and condensed experience without the need to spend time searching and studying charts over the course of many years.

Note that the examples will primarily take place from 2015-2020 but the generally applicable knowledge can be applied in the study of other time periods in the past or future. So the examples will grow old over time but the usefulness of their lessons will constantly remain applicable. As well the charts are primarily of American stocks but there are also an assortment of charts from other regions of the world and other markets such as currencies and commodity futures, which further demonstrate the universal principles of candle charting throughout various time periods and markets.
