Has anyone ever made actual financial candlesticks with plplot ?
Matplotlib has a 'bar' method that you can use to draw bars and so build
the OHCL body,
it would be useful to know if there is something similar in plplot
If someone has an example lying around it would be greatly appreciated.
Yes, we do have such an example. See, <http://plplot.org/examples.php?demo=32>.
We have implemented no high-level API for such plots. Therefore, this
C-only example was implemented with more fundamental PLplot API calls
by one of our users back in 2009. Of course, that lack of high-level
API does give you complete freedom to change the style of this plot
anyway you like using lower level API calls.
If you have a high interest in such plots and a good idea for what the
high-level API for such plots should look like without constraining
users too much with regard to style, we are certainly open to more
contributions in this area.
