Chart reading 2 min read

Compare several stock charts at once

Use CandleGlance to review a shortlist before opening a full chart.

Compare chart patterns with a shared time window, and compare returns with actual return values.

Step 01

Choose a coherent group

Start with symbols from a watchlist, a scan, or the same industry. CandleGlance supports up to twelve covered symbols. A related group gives the side-by-side view a clear purpose and makes differences easier to describe.

Step 02

Check each chart’s coverage

Review the available dates for the selected symbols. A recently listed company may have a shorter history than another stock in the group. Check missing charts or quotes before assuming every panel represents the same complete period.

Step 03

Separate shape from scale

Each stock trades at its own price level. Two lines or candle patterns can look similar while representing different percentage changes. Use the compact charts to inspect direction and structure, then use return figures when you need a numeric performance comparison.

Step 04

Open the chart that needs space

Move into the full charting workspace for a closer look at a selected symbol. Adjust the range and add a focused set of indicators. Return to the group view when you want to compare the observation with the rest of your shortlist.
