Doji & Marubozu
There are unique candlestick shapes called doji and marubozu.
Doji is a candlestick that has no body so it is just a straight line. This means that the opening price is the same as the closing price (no price change) or the price change is very small.
Meanwhile, the marubozu is a candlestick that has no wicks. In a bullish marubozu, the opening price equals the lowest price and the closing price equals the highest price. While in a bearish marubozu, the opening price equals the highest price and the closing price equals the lowest price.
