📊 1. Chart Types on Binance
Line Chart: Simplest form—plots closing prices only. Great for a clean view of support/resistance but misses detailed OHLC data .
Bar Chart (OHLC): Shows open, high, low, and close via a vertical bar, more informative than lines .
Candlestick Chart: Most popular on Binance—each candle displays the full price range (Open, High, Low, Close). Green = bullish, red = bearish .
