danoz | How do you read a stock market bar chart? |
I am trying to figure out how the movements on a bar chart relate to a line chart. What do the short horizontal bars mean, including the direction(s) they are pointing? |

Very simple.
The vertical line represents the price range for that time period. The very top of the line is the high for that period and the very bottom of that line is the low for that period. The horizontal line on the left is the opening price for that time period and the horizontal bar on the right is the closing price for that period.
For example, let's say you're looking at a daily chart of XYZ Corp. and the vertical line runs from 55 to 59, the left horizontal line is at 56 and the right horizontal line is at 58. That means the high for that day was 59 and the low was 55. The opening price for that day was 56 and the closing price was 58. |

I suggest you have a look at candlesticks as a good graphic way to see stocks. The bar is between the open and close, red if it went down, green if it went up. (In black and white publications they use open bars for up and filled dark bars for down.) The lines on the top and bottom extend to the high and low of the day. Seems to make more sense to my eye, intuitively, than bar charts. Uses more space on the printed page, so some newspapers are still using bar charts, but most computer based services will give you the option to have candlesticks. And, further, there is a whole methodology of interpreting the pictures on a short term basis that is a pretty good predictor of what will happen in the next couple of periods. |

The side bar on the left of the bar is the opening price, the side bar on the right of the bar is the closing price, the total length of the bar is the price movement for the time period involved e.g. one day. Thus you are looking at a visual that gives you an idea of the spread of the price during a defined time period and the opening and closing price. If the left side bar is lower than the right side bar then the stock ended higher than it started, if vice versa then the stock ended on a lower price than it started. |

Bar charts indicate dates, time periods and/or times and that stock’s or the market’s current price.
Bar charts DO NO indicate volume or any other indicators.
The longer the line, the higher or lower that stock's price or the market moved - up, down or sideways [consolidating].
The shorter the line, the higher or lower that stock's price or the market didn't move - up, down or sideways [consolidating].
If a stock's chart shows that stock's price from $90 to $100 AND that time period is one hour AND that stock moves $2, the chart will show that $2 movement.
If that same stock's chart shows that stock's price from $90 to $100 AND that time period is one hour AND that stock moves 25 cents, the chart will show that 25 cents movement. The line will not be as dramatic or as noticeable as the $2 move, but it will be noticeable.
Thank you for asking your question. I enjoyed taking the time to answer it. You did a great job - not only for your information, but for every other person interested in reading my answer. Thanks to everyone for reading my answer.
I wish you well!
VTY,
