Chart Basics
Learn how to read charts and understand the key concepts behind every trade. Work directly with real historical charts, answer focused questions, and build the skills needed for structured practice.
Understanding Candles
See what a chart shows, how candles record price movement, and how candle bodies, wicks, and volume fit together.
Reading the Axes
Read dates on the time axis, prices on the price axis, and connect both coordinates on a real chart.
Navigating the Chart
Pan and scale a TradingView chart while keeping the asset, price history, and candle interval unchanged.
Understanding Chart Intervals
See how daily, hourly, and five-minute candles divide and combine the same underlying price history.
Long and Short Positions
Understand long and short direction, entry and exit prices, quantity, and completed profit or loss.
Stop Loss, Take Profit, and Risk–Reward
Plan stop-loss and take-profit prices, compare risk with reward, size a position, and replay a complete trade.
