The candlestick chart has a wide portion, which is called the body. The body shows the point between the open and close of the assets that is being traded. When the body become black, it means the open was above the close. And in a case when the body become empty, it simply means that the close was greater than the open. The closing price of the asset that is being traded will tell if the candlestick is bearish or bullish. The Close price is at the top of the body why that of the Open price is at the bottom of the body. If the assets that is being traded is closed at a lower price than it open price for that day or the time frame, that is when the body will be filled up or become black in color as I early say.

This is the type of chart that long term traders make use of because they already knows how to determine entry and exit point when trading. It also help traders in the aspect of demand and supply in the market with a rising in price indicated by Xs and the Falling in price indicated by Os axis.

In your own words, explain why the Japanese Candlestick chart is mostly used by traders.

Also traders traders used it because it shows the four price points which are the open,close, high and low throughout the period of time that is being specifies by the trader.
