What is the Close Candle?

The chart uses only closing prices from the daily OHLCV data.

  • On a daily basis you will see one tick (the day close).
  • On a weekly/monthly basis (or other aggregation), four closing prices are used: Opening Close (first close), High Close (highest close), Low Close (lowest close) and Final Close (last close) within the period.

Why is this useful?

Classic candlesticks often overlap due to bodies and wicks. Close Candle reduces visual clutter, making pivot zones and breakouts more noticeable.
