With the proper understanding of CANDLESTICK, you can predict what about to happen in the near future

#Pro tips, we (retailers) can’t move the market so every candle shows what smart money trying to shows.
So their move trap or genuine is only validated by volume
#Pro tips, CANDLESTICK shows half information, another half information shows by volume

Example

WHAT IS TELLING US?

SENIMATE= BULLISH, 2 consecutive higher close candle. Let’s add volume to this candle

https://dotnettutorials.net/lesson/how-to-study-candlestick/ 3/7
20/02/2021 How to Study Candlestick - Trading with Smart Money

2nd candle range smaller than 1st candle


2nd candle volume greater than 1st candle
Think why volume is greater than 1st candle?

Let me explain to you


NARROW SPREAD CANDLE WITH HIGH VOLUME. Two possible explanations

If the volume had represented buying, how can the spread be narrow?

Either the professional money is selling into the buying, possible reversal on near future
There is a trading range to the left and the professional money is prepared to absorb the selling
from traders locked into this old trading range. I mean break out may happen

Let’s understand with chart

If the next bar is down closing near its lows this confirms the professional selling

Low volume down candle close middle or top, it shows that smart money testing supply and no more
supply available 2nd candle was buyer’s volume if the next candle closes above the current candle

6 PRINCIPLE FOR CANDLESTICK ANALYSIS IN TRADING

Principle Number One: The length of any wick, either to the top or bottom of the candle is ALWAYS
the first point of focus because it instantly shows, strength, weakness, and indecision, and most
important where SMART-MONEY enter

https://dotnettutorials.net/lesson/how-to-study-candlestick/ 4/7
20/02/2021 How to Study Candlestick - Trading with Smart Money

Principle Number Two: If no wick is created, then this signals strong market sentiment in the
direction of the closing price. SMART-MONEY active there

Principle Number Three: A wide-body represents strong market sentiment and a narrow body
present week market sentiment Narrow body with the heavy volume either Smart Money observing for
continuous of move or Smart Money enter on the opposite direction

Principle Number Four: A candle of the same type will have a completely different meaning
depending on where it appears in a price trend. Start of trend or middle of the trend or end of the trend
or at support or resistance or in the consolidation phase. Candlestick should analyze the context of
the move. You should never try and read the market looking at one day’s action in isolation. Always
read the market phase-by-phase and then read the latest day’s action into the phase

Principle Number Five: Volume validates price. First, see what CANDLESTICK is telling then
validated by volume, is It validating or not with the CANDLESTICK price action

Principle Number SIX: When a particular timeframe DON’T make sense then move to the next
higher time frame for the big picture or lower timeframe for the microstructure of move

Thanks for the article, i would like to ask a question: for a narrow body candle with higher volume compared
with prior candle, if smart money is not active, what could have been responsible for higher volume and can
volume be used in forex?

One reason for higher volume can also be due to position unwinding.
