green candle

A candle that finished higher than it started, so buyers pushed price up during that time.

The fuller meaning

A candle whose close is above its own open, also called an up candle. Colour compares the close only with that candle's open, not with the previous day, so a green candle can still close below the prior close after a gap down.

green candle, also called up candle.
