The Candle Stick Says…..
There are lots of Stock Traders out there that rely on Candlestick Patterns to trade. I don’t use them, as an absolute, but do use them regular to predict direction, or give me a hint as to what is next. Predicting the next few minutes if day trading or days if looking longer term.
So here are 3 quick lessons on Candlesticks.
- Size of candle sticks. As the market gets close a support or resistance levels. The size of the candle stick will usually shorten. A hint the run up or the run down, is coming to end.
2. Doji. The CROSS, after a run up or a run down, is usually a sign of reversal of direction. So, if the market was running up, and then you see a CROSS, likely the next day, or period is going to be down. Not an absolute but a hint.
Same is true if going down.
3. Hammers. The same is true of hammers after an uptrend or downtrend.
