Here's what you need to know
Candlesticks tell you the story of price action:
The body shows opening and closing prices
Lower wick = lowest price reached
Green = price went up
Red = price went down
But here's what most people miss:
Volume bars are the secret sauce that validates price moves.
Think of it this way:
Price is like a politician making promises.
Volume is like the number of voters supporting those promises.
The bigger the volume = the more conviction behind the move.
Key patterns to watch:
High volume + big green candle = Strong buying pressure, bullish
High volume + big red candle = Strong selling pressure, bearish
Low volume + price movement = Weak move, likely to reverse
Volume increasing with trend = Trend likely to continue
Volume decreasing with trend = Trend losing steam
Remember:
Price tells you what happened.
Volume tells you how meaningful it was.
