Cartesian Charts

Financial series (new)

The financial series in the Cartesian Charts make it easy to visualize stock-market price movements or any dataset that includes open, high, low, and close values, all natively in WinUI.

Candle series

A candlestick series shows stock market data using open, high, low, and close values in a single symbol. The high and low are connected by a vertical line, while the difference between the open and close is shown as a column. This format clearly highlights bullish and bearish trends and is commonly used in technical analysis to assess market trends and investor sentiment.

OHLC series

The OHLC series combines high and low ranges with open and close indicators to present trading sessions in a compact form. The high and low are shown with a vertical line, while open and close values appear as horizontal ticks. This visualization clearly represents trading activity and is useful for comparing open and close behavior across multiple stocks.
