Detailed Description

QwtPlotTradingCurve illustrates movements in the price of a financial instrument over time.

QwtPlotTradingCurve supports candlestick or bar ( OHLC ) charts that are used in the domain of technical analysis.

While the length ( height or width depending on orientation() ) of each symbol depends on the corresponding OHLC sample the size of the other dimension can be controlled using:

setSymbolExtent()
setSymbolMinWidth()
setSymbolMaxWidth()

The extent is a size in scale coordinates, so that the symbol width is increasing when the plot is zoomed in. Minimum/Maximum width is in widget coordinates independent from the zoom level. When setting the minimum and maximum to the same value, the width of the symbol is fixed.

Member Typedef Documentation

◆ PaintAttributes

typedef QFlags<PaintAttribute > QwtPlotTradingCurve::PaintAttributes

An ORed combination of PaintAttribute values.

Definition at line 101 of file qwt_plot_tradingcurve.h.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ Direction

enum QwtPlotTradingCurve::Direction

Direction of a price movement.

Enumerator
Increasing	The closing price is higher than the opening price.
Decreasing	The closing price is lower than the opening price.

Definition at line 82 of file qwt_plot_tradingcurve.h.

◆ PaintAttribute

enum QwtPlotTradingCurve::PaintAttribute

Attributes to modify the drawing algorithm.

See also: setPaintAttribute(), testPaintAttribute()

Enumerator
ClipSymbols	Check if a symbol is on the plot canvas before painting it.

Definition at line 95 of file qwt_plot_tradingcurve.h.

◆ SymbolStyle

enum QwtPlotTradingCurve::SymbolStyle

Symbol styles.

The default setting is QwtPlotSeriesItem::CandleStick.

See also: setSymbolStyle(), symbolStyle()

Enumerator
NoSymbol	Nothing is displayed.
Bar	A line on the chart shows the price range (the highest and lowest prices) over one unit of time, e.g. one day or one hour. Tick marks project from each side of the line indicating the opening and closing price.
CandleStick	The range between opening/closing price are displayed as a filled box. The fill brush depends on the direction of the price movement. The box is connected to the highest/lowest values by lines.
UserSymbol	SymbolTypes >= UserSymbol are displayed by drawUserSymbol(), that needs to be overloaded and implemented in derived curve classes. See also drawUserSymbol()

Parameters

extent Symbol width in scale coordinates

See also: symbolExtent(), scaledSymbolWidth(), setMinSymbolWidth(), setMaxSymbolWidth()

Definition at line 284 of file qwt_plot_tradingcurve.cpp.
