Candlestick patterns and chart basics are key tools in technical analysis. Common candlestick patterns like doji, hammer, engulfing, and shooting star can signal reversals. For trends, traders watch for higher highs and higher lows (uptrend) or lower highs and lows (downtrend). Chart patterns such as head and shoulders, double tops/bottoms, triangles, and flags help identify potential reversals or breakouts. A breakout above resistance or below support confirms momentum. Volume is crucial—rising volume strengthens the pattern’s reliability. Always combine candlestick signals with trendlines, moving averages, and support/resistance levels for better accuracy in spotting trade opportunities.
