What are candlestick charts? How to read them

The candlestick is a depiction as to how the stock performed during the given period. If close is higher than open, then candlestick is green, if open is higher than close, candlestick is red. The two lines above and below mention the high and low formed for the period. It is fairly easy to read candlesticks visually, and it gives more information than any other chart
