Stock Chart's main purpose is to display financial charts.
However, it can also be used to visualize any date-based data.
Line, column, candlestick, OHLC, step line and area - all these types of charts
can be displayed with this control.
Stock Chart is a powerful application that lets you forget about most of the
boring parts in building complex statistical systems in WPF and/or Silverlight.
It has built-in period and data set selection tools, and can group data into
longer periods. This enables you to make drill-down charts without any additional
coding, using one data set only. Click on "MAX" button below the chart and the
chart displays monthly data. Click the "1M" (one month) button, and the chart
switches to daily data. This is done without any data reloading! You can see Silverlight
version in action on these pages or check out our online in-browser demonstration
for a WPF version.
Key features:

Advanced scrollbar/zoom control
