CandleStick Chart

In Lowcoder, the Candlestick Chart component is tailor-made for financial and stock market visualisations. Unlike standard charts that focus on categories or continuous trends, the Candlestick Chart captures market volatility and trading behavior through detailed time-series snapshots.

What It Shows

Each "candle" displays four critical price points within a specific time frame:

• Open – Price at the beginning of the interval

• Close – Price at the end of the interval

• High – The maximum price reached

• Low – The minimum price reached

This format helps users interpret market momentum, identify bullish/bearish trends, and make data-driven financial decisions.
