# HiLo Charts

## Content



A **HiLo** chart combines two independent values to supply high and low data for each point in a series. HiLo charts are used primarily in financial applications to show the high and low price for a given stock. The elements of the Y and Y1 arrays in each series of a HiLo chart represent the "high" value, and the "low" value.

Using the [LineStyle](/componentone/api/win/online-chart2d/dotnet-framework-api/C1.Win.C1Chart.4.8/C1.Win.C1Chart.ChartDataSeries.LineStyle.html), the fill and line properties of each series can be customized. For more information, see [Line and Symbol Styles for the Series](/componentone/docs/win/online-chart2d/customizingchartelem/lineandsymbolstylesf).

### To set the chart type to HiLo at design time

*   Expand the ChartGroups node in the Properties window. Open the **ChartGroups Collection Editor** by clicking the **ellipsis** button. In the right pane of the editor, set the [ChartType](/componentone/api/win/online-chart2d/dotnet-framework-api/C1.Win.C1Chart.4.8/C1.Win.C1Chart.ChartGroup.ChartType.html) property to **HiLo**.
*   An alternate method to change chart type is to right-click the existing chart and select **Chart Properties**. From the Gallery, select [ChartType](/componentone/api/win/online-chart2d/dotnet-framework-api/C1.Win.C1Chart.4.8/C1.Win.C1Chart.ChartGroup.ChartType.html) as Stock and Chart sub-type as Hi-low.
*   Another alternate method is to select **Chart Properties** from the Properties pane. From the Gallery, select [ChartType](/componentone/api/win/online-chart2d/dotnet-framework-api/C1.Win.C1Chart.4.8/C1.Win.C1Chart.ChartGroup.ChartType.html) as Stock and Chart sub-type as Hi-low.
