Stock chart is used to illustrate fluctuations in data over a time. It can represent fluctuations in stock, rainfall, or annual temperatures. The data arranged in columns or rows of a worksheet can be plotted in a Stock chart.
DsExcel supports the following types of Stock charts.
Chart Type | Chart Snapshot | Use Case |
---|---|---|
StockHLC |
| A high-low-close chart displays the data values organized in the order: high, low, close with the close value lying in between the high and low values. |
StockOHLC |
| An open-high-low-close chart displays the data values organized in the order: open, high, low and close. |
StockVHLC |
| A volume-high-low-close chart displays the data values organized in the order: volume, high, low and close. |
StockVOHLC |
| A volume-open-high-low-close chart displays the data values organized in the order : volume, open, high, low and close. |
Refer the following code to add StockVOHLC chart:
private static void StockCharts() {
// Initialize workbook
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
// Fetch default worksheet
IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);
// Prepare data for chart
worksheet.getRange("A1:D17")
.setValue(new Object[][] { { null, "High", "Low", "Close" },
