Charts provide technicians with information about past price fluctuations. We can use such data to predict future performance. There are different types of charts used in technical analysis. The choice is influenced by the use to which the results of \u00a0an analysis will be put. The following are the major\u00a0 types of technical analysis charts:<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div style=\"margin:22px 0;\">\n  <a href=\"https:\/\/analystprep.com\/free-trial\/\"\n     target=\"_blank\"\n     rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\n     style=\"\n        display:block;\n        width:100%;\n        text-align:center;\n        padding:14px 0;\n        border:2px solid #2f5bea;\n        border-radius:40px;\n        text-decoration:none;\n        font-weight:500;\n        font-size:18px;\n        color:#2f5bea;\n        background-color:transparent;\n        box-sizing:border-box;\n     \">\n     Practice chart analysis with our free trial.\n  <\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<h2><strong>Line Charts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Line charts are the most \u00a0popular charts among analysts because of their visual appeal. These charts show the price trends exhibited over a period of time. In these charts, \u00a0a line connects plotted data points, such as stock prices. On the vertical axis, we usually have the price level whereas \u00a0the horizontal axis represents time. The data points are usually the closing prices. The scale can either be linear or logarithmic, with the choice between the two types determined by the range of data. For example, a logarithmic scale would be the best choice for data with a magnitude of 100 to 100,000. Narrower price ranges, say $30 to $150, can use a linear scale.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16841\" src=\"https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis.png\" alt=\"Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis\" width=\"2057\" height=\"1549\" srcset=\"https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis.png 2057w, https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis-300x226.png 300w, https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis-768x578.png 768w, https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis-1024x771.png 1024w, https:\/\/analystprep.com\/cfa-level-1-exam\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Line-Chart-Technical-Analysis-400x301.png 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2057px) 100vw, 2057px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Bar Charts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A bar chart differs from a line chart \u00a0because each entry has four bits of data as opposed to just one.

Each entry usually represents a single day or month.<\/p>\n<p>A vertical line connects the high price and the low price.

A shaded candle represents entries in which the closing price is lower than the opening price. A clear candle, on the other hand, shows entries in which the closing price is higher than the opening price.

A logarith\u00admic scale is appropriate for use when we are working on longer time frames or when data is based on wider ranges (i.e. from 10 to 10,000).<\/li>\n<li>In a linear scale, equal vertical distances on the chart represent an equal unit change. A linear scale is suitable for use when working on shorter-term price charts or when \u00a0the \u00a0data under review is based on narrower ranges (i.e. 35 to 50).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Volume Charts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Volume plays a key role when making trading decisions. It\u2019s common to find volume charts below many charts. The volume helps to assess the conviction of buyers and sellers when determining the price of a security.<\/p>\n<p>If a price increase coincides with an increase in volume, analysts consider such a scenario as being very positive technical development. It goes to show the strength and conviction of the market in relation to a given financial instrument.<\/p>\n<p>On the contrary, if \u00a0a price increase is accompanied by dwindling volume, it means fewer and fewer buyers are willing to trade in that particular instrument. If the volume continues to decline, the price increase eventually stops, reflecting the reduced demand for the security.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2><strong>Question<\/strong><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Which of the following technical analysis charts <em>most likely<\/em> shows the price trend over an extended period of time by a line plotted over data points?<\/p>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: upper-alpha;\">\n<li>Line charts.<\/li>\n<li>Bar charts.<\/li>\n<li>Candlestick charts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Solution<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>The correct answer is <strong>A<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>A line chart shows the price trend over an extended period of time by a line plotted over data points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>B is incorrect<\/strong>.
