He starts out by explaining the history of candlesticks as visual representations of price action on charts and then moves on to the basic principles behind candlestick chart patterns. JB Marwood has created this informative Candlestick eCourse on his website.


This was an advanced course with more than just theory but also a thorough study of actual backtesting, quantifying, and looking at results of candlestick patterns across multiple markets, trends, and years of data. I was very happy when a trader and educator that I admired created a free candlestick eCourse. I use them in correlation with my trading system as confirmation and confluence with my existing signals.

I like how candles visually represent price action and quickly show the contrast of the open, close and daily range. After a decade trading I settled on using candlesticks on my charts.
