Candlesticks

The candlesticks style is only relevant for 2-d data plotting of financial data. Five columns of data are required; in order, these should be the x coordinate (most likely a date) and the opening, low, high, and closing prices. The symbol is an open rectangle, centered horizontally at the x coordinate and limited vertically by the opening and closing prices. A vertical line segment at the x coordinate extends up from the top of the rectangle to the high price and another down to the low. The width of the rectangle may be changed by set bar. The symbol will be unchanged if the low and high prices are interchanged or if the opening and closing prices are interchanged. See set bar and financebars.
