There is lots of different terminology you will soon pick up as you begin your forex journey but you will soon understand. Candlesticks in my opinion is the first strategy in forex that you should learn inside out.
Candlesticks alone can indicate trading opportunities as well as indicating when an entry for larger more profitable strategy could arise. Additionally, certain candlesticks can signal traders to exit trades too and look for re-entries. This document will contain a variety of important candlesticks which you should learn so that when you identify these on charts, you can understand when there may be certainty and uncertainty in the market, prompting you to enter or close a position/trade.
Candlesticks Broken Down
Now that you have been introduced to candlesticks, the next stage is to understand how candlesticks work. Each candlestick you see on the chart will have an open and close price. The open price is where the candle has started at and the close price is where the candlestick ended during that time frame.
If the candle would drop down in price from where it had opened and then closed below the price it had opened, this would for a red candle, if the price had increased in price from where it had opened and closed above the price it had opened, this would form a green candle.
The candles will display a body and a wick(s), the diagram below displays the ‘open’, ‘close’, ‘high’ and ‘low’. The body of the candle shows where the price had opened and closed and shows the strength of the buying power or the selling power, generally the greater the body and smaller the wick, the greater indication of buying or selling power there has been within that time frame.
The wicks, i.e the line formed between the ‘open’ and ‘high’ and the ‘close’ and the ‘low’ is the further range the price of that pair has moved during the timeframe period, but was not sustainable up until the end of the period where the candle closes and next candle starts.
Candlestick Trading Strategies
- Eungulfing Candlestick
The engulfing candlestick trading strategy as mentioned in the introduction is more commonly used when used in conjunction with another trading method. Engulfing candles can be useful when you’re looking to enter support and resistance trades or Fibonacci retracements these candles indicate reversals, when you are approaching your support or resistance zones, look for an engulfing candle which will indicate the bull dominating the bears or vice versa.
On the below chart I have marked blue dots on a few occasions where there is a bullish/bearish engulfing candle and the market has moved in the direction of the prevalent traders.
