How chart style affects your analysis

The chart style you choose significantly influences your market analysis and, ultimately, your trading decisions. Here's how each style can be used to enhance your trading on TradeLocker with PROP365 Account:

Bars

Bar charts display the open, close, high, and low prices within a specific time interval. Ideal for technical analysis, they help PROP365 traders spot trends and key support or resistance levels.

Candles

Candlestick charts offer a clear view of price movements, with color-coding to distinguish between bullish and bearish trends. These charts are perfect for analyzing market sentiment and spotting key price patterns.

Hollow Candles

Hollow candlestick charts make bullish candles hollow and bearish candles solid. This style provides a clean visual representation of market trends, helping traders on PROP365 spot trends quickly.

Columns

Column charts are useful for visualizing volume and other single-dimension data points. PROP365 traders can use these to identify high-activity periods and gauge market strength.

Line

Line charts offer a simplified view of price movements, useful for tracking overall trends. They are perfect for traders who prefer long-term analysis on their PROP365 accounts.

Area

Area charts fill in the space below the line chart, providing insight into price and volume trends. This is beneficial for analyzing overall asset performance and market direction.

Baseline

Baseline charts are great for comparing the performance of multiple assets by normalizing data. PROP365 traders use these for assessing relative performance in various market conditions.

Heikin Ashi

Heikin Ashi charts smooth price data, making it easier to identify trends and reversals. These charts are useful for minimizing noise and are particularly suited for traders using longer-term strategies in their PROP365 accounts.
