Using candle sticks in your trading

I've had several e-mails lately wondering why I use candlesticks in my charts. There is nothing magical about candlesticks, but they do provide information that can be used to understand some of the underlying sentiment or emotion in the market. Plus they look cool.

Adam Hewison has a terrific free video on how you can use candlestick formations in your trading. Right now he's offering a free e-book on understanding market movement using candlesticks. He does a much better job than I can in explaining what candlesticks are and how they can benefit you. Check it out here.
