Area charts

Area charts are the best friends of a novice trader. They paint a clear picture of price movements over time by connecting individual price points into a shaded area. This 'area' provides a visual snapshot of the asset's performance, making it easier to see how the price has trended.

Bars

Bar charts bring a bit more detail to the table. Each bar represents a price movement over a given time frame, with dashes on the sides indicating the opening and closing prices. The top and bottom tips of the bar show the highest and lowest prices reached, offering a straightforward view of the market's volatility.

Candles

Candlestick charts are a step up in complexity but bring a wealth of information. The 'body' of the candle shows the open and close range, while the 'wicks' indicate the high and low. Green candles suggest price increases, and red signals a decrease, helping you gauge market sentiment at a glance.
