Learning to read a candlestick chart was like when my grandfather taught me to look at the clouds to know if it was going to rain: at first, everything looked the same to me.
But over time, you start to get it:
🔺 A long green candle is like when the wheat suddenly grows after the rain.
🔻 A large red one... like when the tractor loses its brakes going downhill.
And those strange formations, like the "hammer" or the "hanging man," sound more to me like tools from the barn, but now I know that if you see them on the chart… better not fall asleep.
Dryland advice: don't put in money without first looking at the ground. In cracked soil, not even thistles grow.
