What is candlestick in forex?
A candlestick consist of three main points a closing price, opening price, and wicks. Candlestick indicates the direction of price either bullish or bearish and how the price is moving forward. Various candlestick patterns predict the future direction of price in the forex market. Identification of candlestick patterns from multi- timeframes is the main goal of this article.

Best Candlestick patterns
There are various types of candlestick patterns. You can also learn from many forums and websites on the internet but forexbee is here so you will learn only important and valuable content. Only three candlestick patterns you should follow only instead of complicating things a lot.
- Pinbar candlestick
- Engulfing candlestick
- Inside Bar candlestick
Why only three candlestick patterns?
Pinbar, engulfing, and inside bar candlesticks make a lot of sense to me. I will also show you how you can convert every candlestick into an engulfing candlestick.
In short, every candlestick pattern is an Engulfing candlestick in a higher timeframe
The above important line will be explained in the multi-timeframe topic.
Multi-Timeframe Analysis
This is the most important topic of technical analysis in forex trading called as multi-timeframe analysis. After reading this paragraph, you will not be restricted to only 9 timeframes or waiting for a pin bar or engulfing candlestick in a specific timeframe. A-Pro trader can analyze multi timeframes from a single timeframe.
A bullish pin bar pattern at the support zone will give a buy signal. Remember the way to do multi-timeframe analysis. No need to look for the exact pin bar in 1min, 5min, 15min… And so on. Read the price action.
Look in the image above there are six candlesticks. Now convert these six candlesticks into two candlesticks by using the opening price and first candle and closing price of the last candlestick. Very Easy! It looks like an engulfing candlestick.
Again convert two candlesticks into a single candlestick. Awesome! It looks like a pin bar. And pin bar is the best candlestick to enter in a trade. A pin bar is a confirmation of an order to be triggered.
That’s All just try to read the price instead of following the flow. Learn more in detail about eliminating timeframe restriction by viewing the youtube video
