Bar Chart
Bar chart: Basically all characteristics mentioned for the line chart also hold true for the bar chart. However, the construction is a different one. The bar chart is composed of a high (highest price during a session), a low (lowest price during a session) and the close. All that is required is to draw a vertical line (bar) from the high to the low. Then, set a horizontal dot from the vertical line to the right, representing the close. Sometimes users refer also to the opening price; a dot drawn on the left side of the bar. The bar chart is probably the most popular chart in use today.
