In response to numerous user requests, TradingView has added a new type of chart — Volume candles.

Now, traders can visually check out the volume of trades for each candle. With this new chart type, they will see candlesticks, but the width of each candle is based on the trading volume during that candle’s formation period.

So, the greater the trading volume during the formation period, the wider the candle.

You can choose Volume candles as a chart type from the menu on the top toolbar.

Please note that the new chart type is available to users with a Premium subscription or higher.

TradingView has been expanding the lineup of chart types available to users of the platform. A recent addition is HLC area. This chart type is based on three price values: High, Low, and Close. It allows you to focus on the most important data and disregard the open price value that is less significant for analysis.

If it is more useful for you to see the range of price movement on a selected interval, the HLC area chart type in the form of a shaded area is at your service.
