Candlestick and OHLC Charts

Overview

Candlestick and OHLC charts are available under the Settings pull down menu as explained in the next section. These charts display price movement, showing the open and close prices and the high and low for the time frame selected. Candlestick and OHLC charts both display the same data but with a slightly different presentation. For both charts, red indicate that the stock closed down and green indicates the stock closed up for the period.

Selecting the Candlestick Charts

The Candlestick option can be selected by going to the Settings pull down menu seen below where you select the Candlestick setting. You can also choose how you would like to see the data, which can be Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly. Note for Hourly, the chart period must be 5 days or less.
