Present the stock history of any stock with both interactive and static charts.

Stock History

This project was bootstrapped with Create React App.

This small project makes use of the Alpha Vantage API in order to fetch historical stock data and then displays Two charts, a candlestick chart created using CanvasJS and a linear graph created using an SVG viewbox from scratch.

With this app you are able to search by and stock symbol/code/security/keyword and then select a specific stock from the search results. After you select a stock, the application renders a candlestick chart showing the latest historical data of the stock in hourly intervals which is the default value. It also supports switching to 30 minute, 15 minute, 5 minute and 1 minute intervals.
