JS Candlestick Chart by AnyStock and More

June 28th, 2016 by Margaret Skomorokh

Last week we have shared with you on AnyChart Facebook Page and in Twitter the following data visualizations (including a JS Candlestick chart by AnyStock):

  • Explore the world with Tim Peake – Use this map to explore ESA astronaut Tim Peake’s stunning photos of Earth, taken from the International Space Station during his six month mission (created by Esri UK). You will find photos of London, Ethiopia, New Orleans, and many other places, all of them looking great from space!
  • ThermalPlot – Multi-attribute time-series data plays a vital role in many different domains. An important task when making sense of such data is to provide users with an overview to identify items that show an interesting development over time. However, this is not well supported by existing visualization techniques. ThermalPlot is a technique allowing to visualize multi-attribute time-series data using a thermal metaphor, which helps users to find items that are important (Team: Johannes Kepler Universität, St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences).
  • Understanding Millenial Moviegoers – This infographic by the theatrical analytics company Movio reveals the truth about millennial moviegoing. There are some bad news for art-house and indie filmmakers hoping to get young people into the theater: according to these data, the younger millennials are 45% less inclined to see a drama and 52% less interested in an indie film.
  • JS Candlestick Chart by AnyStock – A Japanese Candlestick chart is a combination of a line chart and a bar chart used primarily to describe price movements of an equity over time, where each bar represents the range of price movement over a given time interval. It is mostly used in technical analysis of equity and currency price patterns. The interactive Candlestick chart you see here was created using AnyStock – a JavaScript-based financial charting solution by AnyChart.

AnyChart Charting Framework 7.10.0 Coming Soon

April 16th, 2016 by Margaret Skomorokh

Releases announced on our site – AnyChart, AnyStock, and AnyMap 7.10.0 – will be available by the end of April; we are working hard to release the new version of our charting framework as soon as possible. A lot of great and long-awaited features will be added.

In the new version of AnyChart, you will find:

  • TreeMap Charts
  • Save as Excel/CSV
  • Keep Only/Exclude Data Point
  • Context Menu

AnyStock will be updated with:

  • Common Chart Types (Candlestick, Spline, Area, Marker, and more)
  • Legend Interactivity
  • Data Grouping Settings

Finally, the following features will be added to AnyMap:

  • Dot/Point Maps
  • Drill Down
  • Points Connection

AnyChart is a robust JavaScript/HTML5 charting framework combining all major features you need. And we do our best to improve our products even more.

By the way, this week we have posted on AnyChart Facebook Page and in Twitter some interesting data visualizations:

  • The NYPL Map Warper is a tool for digitally aligning (“rectifying”) historical maps from the The New York Public Library’s collections to match today’s precise maps. Visitors can browse already rectified maps or assist the NYPL by aligning a map.
  • How the Rest of the Delegate Race Could Unfold – This interactive delegate calculator by The Upshot lets you simulate how the Republican and Democratic nominating contests could unfold. Adjust the sliders to see how the outcomes can change (each line in the charts represents one possible outcome). The calculator uses each state’s delegate allocation rules, along with estimates of how favorable each district is for each candidate. To compute these estimates, Upshot used a model based on demographics and results from past primaries and caucuses.
  • Markov Chains Explained Visually – Enjoy this interactive visual explanation of Markov Chains. In addition, you can use a Markov chain “playground” to make your own Markov chains by messing around with a transition matrix! Markov chains, named after Andrey Markov, are mathematical systems that hop from one “state” (a situation or set of values) to another.
