What is the difference between Candlestick Patterns and Bar Chart Patterns?
In general, patterns located in Candlestick charts describe a single day’s activity or activity over a few days. Patterns located in Bar charts are frequently formed over a series of days, weeks, months or years. It is the series of price bars over time that depict price swings and form the pattern. This is sometimes referred to as a Classic pattern. You can find out more about patterns in our Pattern Descriptions section.
