Like bar charts, candle charts represent OHLC except in the form of colored rectangles called ‘candles’.When the open is lower than the close, the candle is shaded green. When the open is higher than the close, the candle is shaded red. If the open and close are the same, a thin horizontal line segment is drawn at that price (this type of candle is called a "doji"). Each candle has a ‘wick’ that extends beyond the candle to indicate the high and low, respectively.
Bar charts consist of vertical lines with a horizontal "shelves" on either side. One "bar" is created for each interval (period) on the chart. Each bar represents the OHLC (Open, High, Low, Close) for the period. The top and bottom of the vertical line represent the high and low for the period. The left shelf is the opening price while the right shelf is the closing price. The bars are a single color.

A volume candle chart is a hollow candle chart where the width of a candle varies to indicate volume. Each candle’s shading and fill follow the same conventions as those in hollow candle charts. Wide candles indicate high volume, while narrow candles indicate low volume.

Scatterplot draws a single 'dot' at every close and does not connect them.
