When you look at a chart, there is something you see first . It's the candle. And all chart analysis starts with this candle . I will begin the first lecture of Chart Theory. If you have looked at charts even a little, most of you probably know what candles are. However, candles do not simply show whether the price rose or fell. By

Simply put, if the closing price is higher than the opening price, it is a bullish candle. If the closing price is lower than the opening price, it
