Ploty Candlesticks - draw them cleaner

đź“Š Plotly Python

Hi, I’d like plotly to draw candlesticks with sharp borders, like the “Tradingview” candles you see on the right side.
Is it possible to make this adjustment and how? Maybe by modifying the plotly scource code?
Setting them to a fixed amount of pixles would help, I guess.

Hey @Zangief I am not sure if that is enough for your needs, but part of the blur derives from the fill color and line color/ width. Try this:

import plotly.graph_objects as go

import pandas as pd
from datetime import datetime

df = pd.read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plotly/datasets/master/finance-charts-apple.csv')

fig = go.Figure(
    data=go.Candlestick(
        x=df['Date'],
        open=df['AAPL.Open'],
        high=df['AAPL.High'],
        low=df['AAPL.Low'],
        close=df['AAPL.Close'],
        line=dict(width=0.0),
        increasing=dict(
            fillcolor="green",
            line=dict(
                color="rgba(0,0,0,0)",
                width=0
            )
        ),
        decreasing=dict(
            fillcolor="red",
            line=dict(
                color="rgba(0,0,0,0)",
                width=0
            )
        )
    ),
    layout=dict(height=800)
)

fig.show()
