add high/low/close lines to a stacked column chart
I need to add high/low/close lines to a stacked column chart. The
high/low/close values are unique, and each one corresponds with one of the stacked bars. they should be on the same y-axis Or I can add points next to each column of my stacked column chart and then add custom error bars to those points. Either way will work, but I can't figure out how to do either of these options. Thanks |

add high/low/close lines to a stacked column chart
Do you have a bunch of stacked bars, and you're showing the HLC for each?

Yes, that's correct. But the HLC values are not the values of the
stacked bars, I have unique HLC values for each stacked bar that I want to show for each, for a comparison.

add high/low/close lines to a stacked column chart
Not sure exactly how it should look, but I'll take a stab.
Assuming something like this for your stacked columns, where A-D are four series, and a-g are the category labels. A B C D a 3 3 6 5 b 3 3 4 5 c 6 6 3 3 d 3 6 4 3 e 4 4 4 3 f 3 3 4 4 g 5 4 6 3 There's the stacked column chart. Suppose the HLC looks like this: H L C Up Down 1.33 17.49 13.33 15.74 1.74 2.42 2.33 10.69 6.92 8.36 2.33 1.44 3.33 17.47 3.28 15.40 2.07 12.12 4.33 14.64 5.36 12.84 1.80 7.47 5.33 14.39 6.66 7.14 7.25 0.48 6.33 13.77 11.95 13.03 0.74 1.08 7.33 15.29 3.05 5.02 10.28 1.96 where Up is high minus close and Down is close minus low, for the error bar values. The 1.33, 2.33, etc are the category values for the Close series, which will be added as an XY series. Values of 1, 2, 3 would coincide exactly with the columns, so I've added 0.33 to offset them to the right. Copy the 1.33, 2.33 column and the Close column (hold Ctrl to select the second area), select the chart, and use paste special from the Edit menu to add the data as a new series, categories in first row. It's added as a new stacked column. Select the new series, go to Chart menu Chart Type, and change this to an XY type, markers without lines. Double click this new series, and on the Axis tab, choose Primary, then hit Enter. Now you see how the 1.33, 2.33, etc., lines up. Double click the series again, go to the Y error bars tab. Select Custom, click in the Custom (+) box and select the Up column with the mouse, then click in the Custom (-) box and select the Down column. Format the error bars to hide the end caps (if desired). - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ wrote in message oups.com...
