Synopsis#

Properties#

bodyOutlineVisible - Visibility of the candlestick body outline
bodyWidth - Relative width of the candlestick item within its own slot, in the range from 0.0 to 1.0
brush - Used to fill the candlestick items
capsVisible - Visibility of the caps
capsWidth - Relative width of the caps within a candlestick, in the range from 0.0 to 1.0
count - Number of candlestick items in a series
decreasingColor - Color of the decreasing candlestick item body
increasingColor - Color of the increasing candlestick item body
maximumColumnWidth - Maximum width of the candlestick items in pixels. Setting a negative value means there is no maximum width. All negative values are converted to -1.0

Detailed Description#

This class acts as a container for single candlestick items. Each item is drawn to its own category when using QBarCategoryAxis . QDateTimeAxis and QValueAxis can be used as alternatives to QBarCategoryAxis . In this case, each candlestick item is drawn according to its timestamp value.

Note

The timestamps must be unique within a QCandlestickSeries . When using QBarCategoryAxis , only the first one of the candlestick items sharing a timestamp is drawn. If the chart includes multiple instances of QCandlestickSeries , items from different series sharing a timestamp are drawn to the same category. When using QValueAxis or QDateTimeAxis , candlestick items sharing a timestamp will overlap each other.

See the candlestick chart example to learn how to create a candlestick chart.
