Trading with the Line Chart versus Candlesticks

I was really curious if anyone in the community uses the line chart to trade rather than candlesticks or if you use any other chart that isn’t candlesticks.

I understand candlesticks give much more information than others charts, but ive heard of traders having preference over others. For me, I first began paper/practice trading on the line chart for months on end and just became accustomed to it, and now I live trade using the line chart.
 
I think it's a matter of habit. The way you started to learn is the right way for you. I use candlestick or Heikin ashi candles. That gives me the best signals.
 
For me, a candlestick chart provides more information about the current market situation than a line chart. The candlestick chart shows false breakouts of levels, candlestick patterns and reversal patterns. On a line chart, I can only see the direction of the trend. All other operations are carried out only by candlestick.
