FinanceChart is a financial charting library built on top of the main ChartDirector library.

It extends CDMultiChartMBS by implementing many financial indicators, and allowing complex financial charts to be composed easily.

Key Features:


Using FinanceChart:

For indicator charts, FinanceChart includes a wide variety of indicators. Please refer to the table below for details. You may also add your own custom indicator chart using addLineIndicator and addBarIndicator.

In addition to chart building methods, FinanceChart also has a number of chart formatting methods, such as addPlotAreaTitle to add chart title, setPlotAreaStyle to control background color and grid lines, setDateLabelFormat to control date/time formatting, etc.

Furthermore, as FinanceChart is a subclass of CDMultiChartMBS, and the main and indicator charts are implemented as XYChart objects, they can use the powerful ChartDirector API for formatting (eg. background images, custom logos, custom text boxes, metallic colors, etc).
