Why is the analysis of candles very interesting?

After publishing my articles, I received a huge number of calls and letters from different parts of the globe asking for more detailed information. There are many reasons for the high interest in candlestick analysis, I will name just a few: 1. Japanese candlesticks are universal, and they can be successfully used by both professionals and novice traders. 2. The history of candlestick analysis goes back several centuries, during which it has been constantly honed by trial and error. 3. The Japanese came up with bright, memorable names for various types of candles and their combinations. Having become familiar with Japanese terminology, you can hardly do without it. 4. In Japan, they have long known about Western methods of technical analysis, but in the West - almost nothing about Japanese. In a sense, the Western world is taking revenge, finally getting the opportunity to use Japanese candles along with the usual tools. 5. Using candlestick charts along with other technical analysis tools greatly increases your chances of success - this is a win-win situation.
