The "TopMark" and "BottomMark", as you call it, can be removed by setting WhiskerWidth to 0, and the "MiddleMark" disappears with MedianPen.Style set to psClear. The "Up" and "Down" colors can be set by some logics when adding data points (there's the color parameter in the AddXXXX method...). The intrinsic problem that Box/Whisker expects ordered y values, while the Candle obviously does not ("open" can be greater or smaller then "close"), could be overcome by pre-sorting the data which should also take account of the Up/Down colors. Well, in total, these are a few lines of code, but relatively straightforward. Nevertheless, maybe too much for less code-centered guys? Anyway, I'll try to add your contribution to a new CandleStick series. A few question before I begin: Your posting says that Candlestick plots do not have top and bottom marks, but the wikipedia reference that you gave does show them. What is true? What should be the default up and down colors?
Thanks. I'm used to see CandleStick charts in many Stock Trading software, and I never saw thos top and bottom marks. Default UP can be clLime and Down clRed.
P.S.: the next chart type is Heikin Ashi, a variation of CandleStick. -- Leonardo M. Ramé Medical IT - Griensu S.A. Av. Colón 636 - Piso 8 Of.
