Final Word on Reading a Bar Chart


It takes a bit of practice to get used to reading a bar chart, especially when the price is moving very quickly.


Remember the open is always on the left, and close always on the right (like how you read: right to left, because the open always comes before the close).


The vertical part of the bar represents how high and low the price went during the interval of the bar – in our case each Bar represents a week’s worth of Trading.


Skate.
