Candle

The Candle chart displays colored rectangles, or candles, that consist of a candle body and candle wicks, or line sections going up and down from the candle body. The tip of the upper candle wick indicates the High price during the aggregation period, and the tip of the lower candle wick indicates the Low price during the aggregation period. The upper and the lower sides of the candle body correspond to the Open and the Close prices, respectively.

Coloring

The candle borders are colored depending on whether the Close price is greater or lower than the Open price of the current aggregation period. The candle body is then color-filled depending on whether the Close price is greater or lower than the Open price of the current aggregation period. The coloring patterns are:

Border

• Close price > Open price - Bull border (green by default)
• Close price < Open price - Bear border (red by default)
• Close price = Open price - Doji (white by default)
  

Body

• Close price > Open price - Bull (green by default)
• Close price < Open price - Bear (red by default)
  

You can select alternative colors for a candle body and its borders in Settings > Colors.
