How to plot open and close prices together

[Santhosh]

By default Backtrader plot close price on chart, I like to see open and close price lines together on plot.

Use a 2nd data feed in which you use the open price of your main data feed as the close price.

You can then plot both data feeds on the same axis.

@backtrader Thanks, Could you provide code sample if you have. I could't find samples of two feed from same data stream.

There are some uses of clone there, but it basically comes down to either of these:

Option A

• You use GenericCSVData or PandasData. You can tell those feeds in which part of the original data the close and open prices are. Open a 2nd stream and play with the config - See Docs - PandasData Example and Docs - Datafeed Reference

Option B

• You can clone the existing data (with the method clone)
• Add a filter and manipulate the open price to be the close price - See Docs - Filters
