Hi kumarpal,
Welcome to T2W.
If you want to learn more about candlesticks and what they reveal about the fears and greed of traders and investors, then 'Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques' by Steve Nison is the book for you. It's not cheap; the free option is to do a search on T2W as there will be a goodly amount of useful info here. This will get you started:

If you really want to get your gloves off and dig deeper, then this is the nearest thread to the Holy Grail on T2W - in my view. It's not about candlesticks as such, after all - they don't tell you anything a bar chart doesn't tell you - the thread concerns the story that charts tell the viewer about what traders / investors are thinking, feeling, hoping and fearing. Enjoy!
