What a candlestick chart is.
A candlestick chart shows the open, high, low and close for each time period. The body runs from open to close, while the wick marks the full range traded during that period.
It helps readers compare price direction and volatility without losing the individual periods behind an overall trend. Use a consistent timeframe before comparing candles.

Common questions
What is a candlestick chart?
A financial chart showing the open, high, low and close price for each time period. Its body indicates whether the close finished above or below the open.
How do I read a candlestick?
Read the body as the distance between open and close, and the wicks as the high and low. A rising candle closes above its open; a falling candle closes below it.
What timeframe can a candlestick represent?
Any consistent period, such as five minutes, one day, one week or one month. The timeframe should be stated on the chart.
Can a candlestick chart include a moving average?
Yes. Add a line series over the candles when you want to compare prices with a calculated moving average.
