Tool guide
What should candlestick flashcards teach?
Useful candlestick flashcards reinforce more than pattern names. They review observable structure and interpretation limits so a familiar shape is not automatically treated as a buy/sell signal.
Logic / formula
Again/Hard/Good/Easy grades prioritize review and due cards.
Read the output
Read the output as review state and weak concepts that need repetition.

Treating a score as proven trading skill Memorising answers without real examples
Logic, formula and methodology
Useful candlestick flashcards reinforce more than pattern names. They review observable structure and interpretation limits so a familiar shape is not automatically treated as a buy/sell signal. Again/Hard/Good/Easy grades prioritize review and due cards.
An 18-card bilingual deck covering single-, two-, and three-candle structures plus measurement concepts. Each card includes definition, context boundary, and common mistake. Local spaced review supports Again, Hard, Good, and Easy grades, due dates, mastery boxes, seeded sessions, category filters, progress summary, and state backup.
Worked example
Example
Doji: small body and context-dependent meaning
A Doji card should recall both the small-body definition and the fact that context is required for trading interpretation.
A Doji card should recall both the small-body definition and the fact that context is required for trading interpretation.
How to read the result
The score measures alignment with an educational reference. Mistakes define the next learning step.
Due cards and weak cards are more useful than a single mastery percentage. If you recall a pattern name but forget its context limitation, it still deserves review.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between Hard and Again?
Again represents failed recall and should return sooner; Hard means recall was difficult or incomplete.
Does 100% mastery mean I am ready to trade?
No. It only describes recall of the flashcard material.
Why prioritize weak cards?
To spend review time where forgetting or misunderstanding is most likely.
