Working with Candlestick Charts

Candlestick charts can effectively used in Aqua Data Studio 7.5 to plot data-driven charts.

Candle Definition

1. Candlesticks are used to show stock price
2. Each candlestick shows the stock's high, low, opening and closing prices. The wick shows the stock's high and low prices
3. The body of a candlestick shows the stock's opening and closing prices
4. A day is an up day if the closing price is greater than the opening price
5. The body color is used to flag if it is an up day (GREEN) or down day (RED)

Working with Open-high-low-close Chart

The basics

Run a query in Query Analyzer and enable Charting Tools. Select Open High Low Close Chart. High-Low-Close plots are used to show stock prices.

Open-high-close Chart

1. In a high-low-close plot the vertical line represents the high and low values over one unit of time.
2. The close value is represented by a "tick" to the right. The open value, if present, is represented by a tick to the left.
3. If today's close is higher than yesterday's close - the bar is colored green/blue.
4. If today's close is lower than yesterday's close - the bar is colored red.
5. If today's close is equal to yesterday's close - the bar is colored the same as yesterday.

Working with Bubble Charts

The basics

Run a query in Query Analyzer and enable Charting Tools. Select Bubble Chart.

Bubble Chart

A bubble chart is a two-dimensional scatterplot where a third variable is represented by the size of the points.

1. In a high-low-close plot the vertical line represents the high and low values over one unit of time.
2. The close value is represented by a "tick" to the right. The open value, if present, is represented by a tick to the left.
3. If today's close is higher than yesterday's close - the bar is colored green/blue.
4. If today's close is lower than yesterday's close - the bar is colored red.
5. If today's close is equal to yesterday's close - the bar is colored the same as yesterday.

 Working with Scatter Charts

Run a query in Query Analyzer and enable Charting Tools. Select Scatter Chart.

Scatter Chart

A scatter chart is used to map correlation between sets of numbers. The scatter chart allows you to create a chart showing one piece of information, such as market capitalisation, along the x-axis and another piece of information, such as P/E ratio, along the y-axis

1. The scatter graph consists of plotted points "scattered" around an X-Y grid. The pattern may reveal a relationship between the two variables measured by the X and Y axes (or, in 3D form, among the three variables measured by the X, Y, and Z axes). In 2D scatter graphs, you can illustrate trends in the plotted points by adding a regression curve
2. Scatter graphs can chart multiple data sets, each represented by a different symbol, each having any number of data points
3. In defining a scatter graph, you usually supply an X position for each data point
4. In 2D scatter graphs, you can display scatter plots alone, curves alone, or both together
5. In 3D scatter graphs, you can connect points in the same set with a continuous line. You can also drop a vertical line from each point to the floor of the cage

Working with Stacked Bar Chart

Scatter Chart

The Stacked Bar chart in Aqua Data Studio 7.5 allows you to create a chart displaying the results of multiple queries stacked on top of each other vertically.

1. The Stacked Bar consists of data points represented by segments of each bar, as well as total value represented by data points of each Series selected in the Chart options.
2. Each series is denoted by a different color and the entire bar is the total for the data series

Working with Scatter Charts

Scatter Chart

The scatter chart in Aqua Data Studio 7.5 allows you to create a chart showing one piece of information, such as stock value along the x-axis and another piece of information such as Company, along the y-axis. A scatter chart is used to map correlation between sets of numbers.

1. The scatter graph consists of plotted points "scattered" around an X-Y grid. The pattern may reveal a relationship between the two variables measured by the X and Y axes. In 2D scatter graphs, you can illustrate trends in the plotted points by adding a "Moving Average"
2. Scatter graphs can chart multiple data sets, each represented by a different symbol, each having any number of data points.
