Price action is one type of technical analysis basis on the price movement over the time period. Traders can spot and interpret trends, breakouts and reversals. Many traders use candlestick charts since they help better visualize price movements by displaying the open, high, low and close values in the context of up or down sessions.
Candlestick patterns such as the Harami, engulfing patterns and three white soldiers are all examples of visually interpreted price action. Many short-term traders mainly rely on price action and the formations and trends that help them make trading decisions.
