THE WICKLESS CANDLE By [VXN]

ieri

The Wickless Candles Strategy - Comprehensive Analysis
Core Concept

The "Wickless Candles" strategy is a technical analysis approach that identifies specific candlestick formations where one side of the candle has no wick, indicating strong directional momentum and potential support/resistance levels.
What Are Wickless Candles?

Bullish Wickless Candles

Meaning: A green candle where the opening price equals the lowest price
Significance: Shows that buyers immediately took control and never let price fall below the opening level
Implication: The opening price becomes a strong support level

Bearish Wickless Candles


Meaning: A red candle where the opening price equals the highest price
Significance: Shows that sellers immediately dominated and never let price rise above the opening level
Implication: The opening price becomes a strong resistance level

Visual Strategy Elements
Support/Resistance Lines

Bullish Lines: Green horizontal lines drawn at the low (open) price of wickless bullish candles
Bearish Lines: Red horizontal lines drawn at the high (open) price of wickless bearish candles
Extension: Lines project forward for 5 bars (configurable) to highlight key levels
Purpose: These levels often act as future support/resistance zones
