A chart is a graphical representation of price movement that can be created via the use of various components such as trend lines, candlesticks, bars, Heikin Ashi candles and more.
To display price charts we utilize our proprietary charting library; no third-party chartings are used. They are interactive and allow you to place alerts, draw shapes, choose colors, change chart types, use the measuring tool and add indicators. You can also zoom in/ out and scroll up and down on a chart.
Chart toolbar
The Chart module is equipped with a toolbar right at the top of its screen. The following chart settings are located there, in order from left to right.
