QFChart is a powerful, lightweight financial charting library designed for building professional trading platforms. Built on top of the robust Apache ECharts engine, it provides a specialized API for OHLCV data, technical indicators, and interactive drawing tools.
The Problem
Building sophisticated financial charts from scratch is complex and time-consuming. Existing charting libraries often fall into two categories:
- Too Simple: They lack essential financial features like candlestick rendering, technical indicators, and drawing tools.
- Too Complex: They are difficult to customize, heavy, or expensive.
The Solution
QFChart simplifies the process of creating professional-grade financial charts. It combines the performance and flexibility of ECharts with an intuitive API tailored specifically for trading applications.
- Specialized API: Designed for OHLCV data and technical analysis.
