    how to draw a single candlestick in excel
    sir,
    I have enclosed a sample data in excel sheet.
    I want to draw a single candle stick for the data in each of the row (open, High, Low Close)
    Additionally, it is preferred that the candle stick may be drawn on clicking the last cell adjacent to the data of each row f2 to f6 (cell colored green)

    Candlestick chart is a style of bar-chart used primarily to describe price movements of a security, derivative, or currency over time. This chart type is often used in combination with the volume bars chart for technical analysis of stock and foreign exchange patterns.
