Hi, guys. I started using trading view ( paper account ). I was experimenting with different configurations. I noticed with the candle view between the 18:50 - 18:55 the shadow breaks the 2968 price point, but on the line graph it doesn't. If I was to create a buy order at this point, and I was using the line graph, would it fill the order even though it doesn't show up on the graph? thanks
On the candlechart you can see the Open and Close, but also the range / extremes within that minute. The line graph let you choose only one reference point within a minute which you consider important; the close is widely used, but there are a number of possibilities in TV. But you can see the 1 min. line constantly moving. So yes, depending on the bid/ask you would be filled and you would see price reach that level on your line chart.
Yes it would have gotten filled. Line graphs in trading typically chart the closing prices over a time period. That said, they can be constructed to also chart different elements about price over time. But typically the close is considered important as it sort of filters out what traders often call “noise” i.e. like spikes to the high or low..etc. I don’t subscribe to the theory of “noise” in the markets but most traders seem to.
That's likely BID line, so yes if there is enough pts for the Ask price to be hit then yes. Candles work for me, can see spike and reverses which indicates buying / selling area. I'm a noise guy, trading off 3SMA currently with a Envelope 3sma 0.04% that's my smoothed direction and also noise within.
