Historical Candlestick Stock Chart

By amCharts

    Interactive historical candlestick stock chart

    Example

    Description

    This multi-panel visualization uses amCharts’ JavaScript Stock Chart to show historical open, high, low and close stock data for a company as a Candlestick graph. On a second panel trading volume is shown. The chart uses Data Loader plugin to load its data directly from CloudQuote in CSV format. For good measure, demo also loads a second data set, to compare the stock price to another index. amCharts’ Data Loader is compatible with the CloudQuote CSV format out of the box. We just need to specify a few CSV parameter and a URL to make the chart automatically load the data for each data set:

    "dataSets": [ {
     "title": "Microsoft (MSFT)",
     // ...
     "dataLoader": {
     "url":
    "https://api.cloudquote.net/fcon/getStockPriceHistory.csv?symbol=MSFT&from=2010-01-01"
    ,
     "format": "csv",
     "showCurtain": true,
     "showErrors": true,
     "async": true,
     "delimiter": ",",
     "useColumnNames": true,
     "numberFields": [ "Date" ]
     },
    }, {
     "title": "Apple (AAPL)",
     // ...
     "dataLoader": {
     "url":
    "https://api.cloudquote.net/fcon/getStockPriceHistory.csv?symbol=AAPL&from=2010-01-01",
     "format": "csv",
     "showCurtain": true,
     "showErrors": true,
     "async": true,
     "delimiter": ",",
     "useColumnNames": true,
     "numberFields": [ "Date" ]
     },
    } ],
