Understanding Candlestick Chart

image
Candlestick is a chart that displays the high, low, opening and closing prices of a security for a specific period. The wide part of the candlestick is called the "real body" and tells investors whether the closing price was higher or lower than the opening price. Black/red indicates that the stock closed lower and white/green indicates that the stock closed higher.
