Basics

What Are Charts?


A price chart is a sequence of prices plotted over a specific time frame. In statistical terms, charts are referred to as time series plots.



On the chart, the y-axis (vertical axis) represents the price scale and the x-axis (horizontal axis) represents the time scale. Prices are plotted from left to right across the x-axis with the most recent plot being the furthest right. The price plot for IBM extends from January 1, 1999 to March 13, 2000.
