What you’ll learn: how to read a candlestick chart (open, high, low, close — the only four facts), the candle clock nobody teaches (nothing is final until the daily close), what wicks actually tell you (a failed move is the most honest information on a chart), and the only 4 candlestick patterns that matter — the hammer, the shooting star, the engulfing candle and the doji — with live examples on real Bitcoin history, plus the context law the cheat sheets leave out: WHERE beats WHAT. The video ends on a question — same market, same day, two opposite charts. Put your answer in the comments; Episode 2 settles it.
