Bearish Candle and Bullish Candle

In the bullish market, we can see those green candles because the opening price is low and closing price is high. And in bearish market we can see the reverse as it opens with high price and closes with low price. From this opening and closing price point of view, we can find the bullish and bearish candles in the candlestick.
