BTC Price Candles
One candle for every week, back to 2010. Each candle is built from our stored end-of-day prices, so the top and bottom of the candle are the highest and lowest DAILY closing price of that week — not the highest and lowest price the market actually touched. No trading-volume figure exists for this view.
One candle for each week of Bitcoin's history. A candle is a single bar showing four things at once: where the price started the week, where it ended, and how far up and down it went in between.
A green candle means the week finished **higher** than it started; red means **lower**. The thin line sticking out of the top and bottom shows how far the price stretched during the week before settling.
For example, a candle that opens at $95,000, closes at $104,000 and has a long lower wick down to $91,000 tells you sellers pushed hard mid-week and buyers took it all back by Sunday. Because this chart is built from end-of-day prices, treat those wicks as the smallest possible swing — the real week went a bit further both ways.
Each week's candle uses the first daily closing price of the week as the open, the last as the close, and the highest and lowest daily closing prices as the top and bottom.
We **only** store one price per day for this long history, so the weekly top and bottom are the highest and lowest DAILY CLOSING prices, not the true highest and lowest prices traded inside the week. Real spikes went **higher** and real dips went lower than the thin wicks show.
There is no weekly trading-volume figure here.
