️ Intro to Price Action

What Candles Are Actually Telling You

Price action is one of the first things new traders hear about — but also one of the most misunderstood.

It isn’t about memorising candlestick names or obsessing over every wick. It’s about reading what the market is doing right now — and how it’s reacting to structure, volume, and flow.

Let’s break down how to start thinking like a price action trader — without overcomplicating it.

What Is Price Action, Really?

Price action is the language of buyers and sellers. Every candle is a reflection of:

• Who’s in control (buyers or sellers)

• Where they’ve defended or failed

• How price behaves around key areas

When you learn to read price action, you’re not predicting the future — you’re responding to the current story.

The Problem With Candle Pattern Memorisation

There’s a time and place for learning terms like:

• Pin bar

• Engulfing

• Doji

• Tweezer

But without context, these patterns are meaningless.

A bullish engulfing candle:

• At support? Useful.

• In no-man’s land? Misleading.

• Against the trend? Risky.

Patterns matter, but location and reaction matter more.

How to Read Price Action in Layers

1. Start With Structure
   Look left. What is the price reacting to? Are we at a key level, in a trend, or inside a range?

2. Zoom Into Candles
   What is the story of the candle?
   • Long wick = rejection or liquidity grab
   • Small body = indecision
   • Strong close = conviction

3. Watch Reactions, Not Predictions
   Does price respect the level and bounce? Or does it wick through and stall? That’s your tell.

4. Use Time
   Give price a few bars to develop. Don’t force a narrative after one candle.

Simple Price Action Exercise

Pick one level (support/resistance) on a 15m or 1H chart.
Now wait.

When price reaches that zone:

• Watch how it behaves

• Take note of the candle shape and size

• Wait for confirmation — not hope

Do this daily for a week and you’ll learn more than hours of YouTube.
