Understanding price movements of a share
Movements of a share/stock When the market opens, any share/stock will have a opening value for the day. This value will fluctuate during the market hours i.e., candles/graphs, etc. will be shown for the up/down/sideways movements of the price. We see a green (bullish) candle when the price moves up and a red (bearish) candle when the price moves below in comparison to the previous candle. The color of the candles depends on the closing (Close) value of the candles and it decides whether a candle is bullish (green) or bearish (red). Up Movements - the price increases Down movements - the price decreases Sideways movements - the price neither increases nor decreases. The price keeps moving in a range. Examples- In the examples above, we can see that each red candle means the price of the share went down and the green candle indicates that the price has gone up when compared to the previous candle. If we set the time frame to 1 hour then each candle will show the changes in value/price
