Highcharts highstocks - candlestick graph has last value partially cut - highcharts

In a candlestick graph i am building, the latest bar is cut-off partially such that even the bar is not visible. Thus it's difficult to judge the high and low by seeing the bar.
I'm unable to post a pic now but it's like the last rectangle being cut in half.
I'm tried a lot of options in the api but can't figure out why this is not showing correctly. The chart margin and axis offset options havent' helped. Is there a way i can set the series margin from the plot area so that it displays right.

For this problem, the best solution is to insert a dummy series which should be hidden from every aspect of the chart. So try this, insert a dummy series from the last point of the data series to some extra buffer(as per need). Then remove this series from the chart by explicitly removing it from the legends (using showinlegend),chart(setting linewidth to 0) and from tooltip by having a check in formatter. Hope this solves your problem.

I had the same problem and couldn't figure it out, because no matter how I changed the xAxis.maxPadding or changed the xAxis.max, it would always cut off the last candlestick when I clicked on the range selector.
To solve it, (hack) I just added an extra data point in my series and set it 1 day past the last day and set all values to null.

Without any code or a pic, it's hard to tell the problem, but it sounds like you need to use the max padding option. http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#xAxis.maxPadding. You may also want to look at endOnTick as well as whether you are setting max on the axis.

Possible bug in zooming in on Vaadin charts when more than 1 series present?

Earlier, I asked how to create "spectra" charts in Vaadin (see How to create a "spectrum" chart using Vaadin 14+). It turned out that one didn't actually need to create barcharts -- the only real need seemed to be to set the pointwidth to 1. (This solved the "very wide" widths lines when zooming.)
HOWEVER: I think there's a bug in vaadin charts when one has more than 1 series presents and when one zooms: the line moves to an inccorrect position on the x-axis (or the x-axis is no longer placed correctly.) Any thoughts on how to resolve? Here are two screenshots showing the problem. In the first one, only ONE series is visible and the line is at the correct x-axis point of ~598.36. In the second screenshot, though, (where the only change I have made is to enable the 2nd series), the line moves to an INCORRECT x-axis coordinate (it seems like it's ~598.25!!!).
One theory I have is that adding the second series somehow confuses the chart from determining the correct x-axes....maybe because each series has it's own x axis logic in some way? Not sure....(I'm using Vaadin 14 and I tested this both in my dev env and on production.)

Controlling shown y-axis labels?

So I am using the Charts framework (formerly ios-charts) for a couple of charts.
One of them in a bar chart where the y-axis is duration in seconds - that I then convert into readable minute:second notation with a formatter.
But the selected interval of labels bugs me a little. I would like to control them so they are only shown at intervals that makes sense for this - like say every half or full minute. But I can't seem to find a way to do that for that axis. Only the x-axis seems to have options for that?
So am I missing something here? Or it is not in the framework?
Whoops. Never mind. I found the 'granularity' property on the axis right after asking. And it seems to do what I need.

Highcharts :: Need to split y-axis from primary body of chart. Can I display this axis separately from the Highchart?

I have a situation where I need to remove all margins from a highchart and remove the x/y axis so it fills a series of columns in a table completely.
I did that, no problem. Chart goes to the extremes as needed.
What I need now is that pesky yaxis I already removed...but displayed in a table cell outside of the existing highcharts object.
It would seem easy, as though I could just set the overflow property of yaxis to 'visible' and play with the offset...which would work however this would only work if I wanted to re-position the axis within the boundaries of the highchart object. I want him in a different cell entirely.
Is there anyone who has had experience in this situation? Is it going to require me to have a secondary highchart with only a y-axis?
Best answer gets a green check.
EDIT :: I now have dispersed each 'day' into their own column (more bars coming per day [scheduled,actual,etc...]). In order to keep the scales lined up, I manipulate the yAxis:max property and set them all to a derived value.
In the open column (currently w/ text Hourly Trends) is where I would put an additional highchart module with no series data but with the same min/max/tickInterval.
The next big leap will be to see the data is alive and changes w/ schedule. May have to start another thread for that one, no?
Create a new HC object with no data but only the yAxis (making sure it is the right scale, etc). Perhaps add the same series of data to it but hide the series? Add it to the location you want. This seems kludge and not very good practice. Each business use is different but why would you want this?
EDIT based on comment of business rules:
Why not come at this from a different direction and have the individual chart elements (the bars/points/etc) be a single point chart. This way you have one chart per column. You can then set up the yAxis to be text and not worry about the position. If we could see an example of the page layout and the desired result that would help.

stacked column charts appearing too thin

I have the following issues while working with stacked column charts:
Firstly,look at the following chart:
http://jsfiddle.net/QnuEA/
If you notice the time range is wide, the columns appear too thin. I know that setting pointWidth is one option. But actually the chart should be appearing as they would if the time interval range is narrow as follows:
http://jsfiddle.net/QnuEA/1/
The expectation is x-axis interval must adjust itself.
Secondly, for the same chart as above, if the width of the chart is more (say 900 px or so), the x-axis seems to have a lot of empty space before the first tick.
Is there a solution to this? (I am unable to post more than 2 jsfiddle links here.So I am not providing a link for this issue)
You need to define pointRange as timestamp

Teechart with Candlestick for Delphi

I am using the TeeChart VCL Delphi module. I am trying to plot a candlestick chart. I have the following questions:
When I run the code it shows me the last date data on the right hand side. However, the y-axis is not automatically scaling at all. If I scroll backwards, it automatically adjust the y-axis scales. However, if I go far to the right which is the end, it does not auto-scale the y-axis anymore. What am I doing wrong?
The x-axis is the days of the week. However, I have no data for the weekend. It shows as empty space. How do I remove that?
How do you change the cursor so it shows the date/time for the X,Y you choose?

scroll backwards, it automatically adjust the y-axis scales. However,
if I go far to the right which is the end, it does not auto-scale the
y-axis anymore. What am I doing wrong?
What about setting the Y axis (left axis) to be automatic? For example:
Chart1.Axes.Left.Automatic:=True;
A more drastic solution would be also forcing the chart to repaint after adding each point.
Series1.Add(value);
Chart1.Draw;
If any of that helps please send us a simple example project we can run "as-is" to reproduce the problem here. You can attach your files here.

You should do as in the All Features\Welcome!\Chart Styles\Financial\Candle (OHLC)\Axis Labels no Weekends example in the new features demo. This demo is included with registered and evaluation versions. Otherwise you can download it here.
How do you change the cursor so it shows the date/time for the X,Y you

There are two examples in the demo that can help you on this:
