Simple, CandleStick is one of the methods of Charting the prices of a security, similar to Line charting. In Line charting you consider only the 'Close' parameter of the price for a particular time period. In Candlestick, you consider 'Open','High','Low' parameters along with 'Close' of the price for a particular time period.
CandleStick charting is mostly used as a 'Visual aid' for depicting the current behavior in the security price.
