Trading using with candlesticks only and nothing else

[radex78]

Always find it interesting that candlestick analysis is so popular in the west but in Japan,where it was invented, almost nobody uses it anymore. Charts are still printed
using candlesticks in Japan, and maybe a few old timers still do candlestick analysis. Otherwise it seems to be a dead art.

whether it's true? if on japan candlestick not used anymore, as I know candlestick created certain person from japan, I don't remember his name, and till now still I like use candlestick chart than use bar chart

Just wanted to hear what the experienced and/or successful traders here thought. Is it possible to trade solely based on candlesticks, and absolutely no other piece of information - no news, no volumes, and no sophisticated TA (maybe just absolute some basics like MAs, Oscillators only). This would be the most minimal form of price action trading, so to speak. Please share your experiences and observations.

Yes. The only thing on my chart (apart from the price candlesticks) is my preferred measure of volatility, ATR. No MAs, oscillators, macd, bollinger champagne, RSI, keltner things, trendlines, fuck knows what else...

It's an international forum. That's part of its attraction.

English isn't everyone's first language.

His meaning is always perfectly clear.

I suggest you simply don't read his posts, if you don't like them?

Yes, it's true. The person's name you mentioned is Honma.

Really? You are honestly saying you understand what this meant? It's a bad impression of Yoda! LOL

Give the guy a break. At least he's trying. Obviously you've never made the effort to learn a foreign language.

As long as he makes money, who cares what language he's good at. I personally skip over his posts, but that's my choice

What time frames are you trading?

Actually, i'm learning Spanish atm.

This forum is in the English language, not in a bad dialect of Jedi/Yoda speak.

Anyway, he's now on IGNORE, so let's forget him.
