Summary
Hollow Point Trading shares an educational animation explaining how a candle body connects the open and close, while wicks mark the highest and lowest prices beyond the body. It clarifies that a long wick shows a price excursion that did not hold through the close, but does not identify who traded or predict what comes next.
