Candlestick Chart

A price chart where each bar shows open, high, low, close — the most common chart format.

In depth

Body color shows direction (green/white = up, red/black = down). Wicks show intraday extremes. Patterns (doji, hammer, engulfing, morning star) are widely used by traders for short-term signals.
