Function candle draw candlestick chart. This is a combination of a line-chart and a bar-chart, in that each bar represents the range of price movement over a given time interval. The sample code is:
int sample(mglGraph *gr)
{
mglData y(30); gr->Fill(y,"sin(pi*x/2)^2");
mglData y1(30); gr->Fill(y1,"v/2",y);
mglData y2(30); gr->Fill(y2,"(1+v)/2",y);
gr->SubPlot(1,1,0,""); gr->Title("Candle plot (default)");
gr->SetRange('y',0,1); gr->Box(); gr->Candle(y,y1,y2);
return 0;
}
