    Question Stock/candlestick charts in Access?

    Can you create stock and/or candlestick charts in Access? If yes, then what version did they first become available in?



    Also, is it possible to add technical indicators, such as a moving average, to a stock chart?

    Thanks,
    Brooks

    access charts are very basic.
    i would export to excel sheet, and the (better) charts would read from that sheet.

    Is a 'candlestick chart' just a column chart?
    If so, yes you can in 2D and 3D versions together with cones, cylinders and much more.
    There are also many other types of chart, some more useful tan others
    You can add trend lines, either linear or polynomial.

    So whilst I agree than Excel charts are more powerful and have even more options, I don't agree that Access charts are very basic.
    For most purposes, I find them more than adequate avoiding the need to export to Excel.
