white body means an up day....black body means a down day. you need to buy and read Steve Nison's two candlestick books which can be purchased at Amazon.com.

Hi Double D,

The body of the candle is established by the open and close for the day, and the color indicates if it is a down day or up day. BLACK(blue per the chart) is negative.

The SHADOWS (legs above and below the BODY of the candle) indicate the highs and lows for the day.

Hope I answered your question.

Seeya
