In the previous article, we learned how to create an area chart with Kendo UI for Vue. In this article, we will create a candlestick chart.
A candlestick chart shows the open, high, low, and close values for a stock. It has a solid portion that is the body and two wicks extending above and below the body. The body shows the range between the open and close price. The top of the upper wick represents the highest trading price. The bottom of the lower wick is the lowest trading price. Candlestick charts are used to analyze patterns in price movements such as if the price is moving in an upward trend or a downward trend. Up next, we will create our chart using stock data we fetch from an API.
