Tick candles: how it works and its 6 looks on WickSpeak

A new candle after a set number of price updates, not a set time. When the market is busy candles come quickly and look thin; when it is quiet they take longer and look wide. On crypto an update is a trade, on your broker it is a price change. On WickSpeak it comes in 6 looks.

The 6 looks

ClassicNormal-looking candles, each one holding the same number of updates.
Speed glowA candle that filled fast is bright and a slow one is faint, so you can see the pace of the market.
Clock labelEach candle is labelled with how long it took to fill up.
Burst markersA gold flash marks candles that filled in a burst, much faster than usual. Bursts often come just before or during a big move.
Pressure tint (crypto)Each candle is tinted by who was in control while it filled, from red for sellers to green for buyers.
Rejection tipsThe tip of a long wick lights up where price was pushed back hard inside that candle.

Built from your candles
