    Technical analysis is the soul of day trading. Please take time to get familiar with all the tools you can use. Technical traders only trade when they see a particular indicator or pattern.

  • Step 3

    Candlestick chart is more understandable

    In candlestick chart, we can easily see and compare the relationship between the open and close, the high and low of a stock price movement.

    If it open low and goes lower but eventually close back up to form a long shadow line on bottom, that means the bottom has been tested and the chance is high that it will go up higher.

    If it open high and goes higher but eventually close below open price to form a long shadow line on top, that means the top has been tested and the chance is high that it become the pivot point to go down.
