Candlestick Trading Ninja: 10 Hour Glossary & DIY Strategy (Udemy.com)

Expert Technical Analysis & Candlestick Trading Hacks For Forex, Stock Trading, Day Trading & Swing Trading in 1 course.

Created by: Saad T. Hameed (STH)

Last updated September 2026

Our take

Based on the ratings of 462 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in September 2026. No course pays to be reviewed.

This is a candlestick course from Saad T. Hameed, a Udemy trading instructor with a big catalog. It runs 10.4 hours over 82 lectures. The opening sections are pattern work: 20 lectures on simple patterns and 29 on complex ones, including Marubozu, Tweezer Bottoms and Bearish Harami Cross. The later sections apply them to penny stocks, bitcoin, stocks, gold futures and EURUSD, plus a short look at other tools like VIX. It is pitched at beginners, though the level is listed as all levels.

Reviewers who like it say the format works: a pattern is described, then shown on a chart, with little theory up front. Some call the instructor patient and frank, especially about market traps. The complaints repeat, though. About 51 of 462 ratings are one or two stars, and they mention repetition, a loud or unclear voice, and slides that get read aloud. One reviewer says the 10 hours hold maybe 2 or 3 of real content. Another says some patterns are obscure and the popular ones should come first.

The course was updated in September 2026, so it is not stale. One reviewer grumbles about the charting site used, since most traders favor TradingView. Another notes that trading on candlesticks alone brings confusion and drawdowns, and the requirements themselves ask for six months of demo trading. Treat it as study material, not a trading system. With a 4.4 rating from 462 reviews and over 25,000 students, it is a fair way to learn the patterns if you can live with the delivery. Check the audio in a preview first.

Best forBeginners who want each candlestick pattern explained, then shown on real stock, crypto, gold and forex charts.
Skip it ifYou want a tight, polished crash course. Reviewers call this one repetitive, with rough audio and a loud delivery.

Pros

  • Each pattern is described, then shown on a real chart, which reviewers find clear and to the point
  • Case studies on penny stocks, bitcoin, gold futures and EURUSD, about an hour each
  • Instructor is described as patient and frank, especially about market traps
  • Updated in September 2026, with 25,000+ students and 259 five-star ratings

Cons

  • Repetitive and padded in places; one reviewer says 10 hours holds 2 to 3 of real content
  • Audio is rough and the delivery loud, a complaint in both 4-star and low ratings
  • Candlesticks alone are not enough for live trading, and some patterns shown are rarely used
Explained very practical things, not wasted time on theory stuff rather started with real time charts with correct examples.
Anuj Kumar, a student

Fits beginners best. Requirements are light (a notepad, interest in charts), but the instructor asks for six months of demo trading.

A very good course for beginners to crypto/forex trading. The instructor was responsive and well engaging to questions asked. I suggest that at the end of each section, quizzes should be set to help grasp and understand better the concept taught in the current section.

Curso razoavel ! Acho que ele ganha mais dinheiro vendendo curso do que na bolsa mesmo rsrs.muitos do padrões de vela mencionada, não ouço ninguém usando , são desconhecidos , ou pouco utilizados ! deveria ter feito por ordem de padrões mais populares.

By Caecilia on 7/29/2020

So far, I have enjoyed every minute of this course. I like studying Forex Trading but found myself sinking into the abyss of information overload. My main issue was and still is the meaning behind each candle. I am now taking the time to learn about each candle pattern to ensure I can spot these patterns on a chart. This knowledge will help me to set better trades. So far I am happy with my experience of taking this course.

By Mohammed Fares Zarabi on 1/10/2020

This course is good for a newbie who's getting into trading! - the course is very basic and contains what's needed to learn trading - the examples shown from multiple markets are good but lacks some info - the voice in the videos isn't very clean but you can understand what his saying properly my only complaint is the audio quality!

By Adam EL-Assaad on 12/9/2019

Absolutely fantastic, the instructor is really a special guy. He truly cares about his students and I learned a lot from this course. I really appreciate his cander and how he speaks freely and is not afraid to speak his mind. Especially when it came to explaining the traps that are set up for you. Fantastic instructor, what a character. Thank you my friend from your student in Canada.

By Douglas Tracy on 11/18/2019

yes, i have bit coin, and with the understanding how the candle sticks work, my out look is different, not to buy and hold, but to work the highs and lows.

By Rithadhama C S on 11/13/2019

During Live trading there are lot of confusions if we analyse only candlestick. but gives us sufficient information. There is sufficient amount of draw down if we do trading only based on candlesticks
