01The short answer
ANSWEREach candle shows the open, high, low and close for one period. The body is the distance between open and close, the wicks show how far price travelled beyond it. A green (bullish) candle closed higher than it opened, a red (bearish) candle closed lower.
02Key points
- Long wicks show rejection of a price.
- Big bodies show strong momentum.
- One candle means little; context and structure mean a lot.
