Candlesticks are a common visualisation used to show the trends in a trading system. The candlesticks show what happens in a series of time windows, in terms of the starting price, the end price and the highest and lowest prices seen. The following image shows a graphical plot of candlestick data: Price 120 100 80 May 1 2023 May 2 May 3 May 4 Open High Low Close 2023-05-01 100 120 80 110 2023-05-02 110 130 100 120 2023-05-03 90 100 70 80 2023-05-04 95 110 70 100 2023-05-05 80 120 75 115 May S Figure 1: example of a graphical candlestick plot. Each box represents the trading activity in a time period. The top and bottom of a box (the candle) represent the opening and closing value of a product. The top and bottom of the lines (the candlesticks) represent the highest and lowest value seen in that time frame. The red box on May 3rd indicates the value was lower at close than open, so value went down. You do not need to make a graphical plot - you will be making a text based plot. In the first task, you need to compute candlestick data from the exchange data for a particular product. Here is an example of the fields needed for candlestick data: Date TOTAL 15 MEAN price (total value / total price): 3 20 6.67 You can see that the mean price is 6.67. Close: the average price per unit in this time frame (same as Open, but for the current time frame) High: highest price seen this time frame Low: lowest price seen this time frame You should implement the candlestick data computation using a function which returns the following data type: std::vector<Candlestick> Note that it returns a vector of Candlestick objects. You will need to define your own Candlestick class that is suitable for representing candlestick data. One Candlestick object represents one candlestick. TASK 2: Create a text-based plot of the candlestick data Price 120 100 80 May 1 2023 May 2 May 3 May 4 May 5 The second task involves creating a text-based plot of the candlestick data. The figure above shows an example of a graphical plot. You should try and create something like that using text output. We recommend that you approach this by first manually typing out what kind of characters you might use in your plot to represent different things. Use your text editor to do this. E.g. you might use a '-' to represent the top of a box and a 'l' to represent the stalk. Once you know what you are aiming for, you should write C++ function that takes a vector of Candlestick objects as its input and generates a plot from that data. You will need to cope with quite a few problems here for example, how can you round the data so it is an appropriate range for your text-based plotter? How can you deal with horizontal and vertical positioning? You should attempt to use object-oriented techniques to make your code as neat and well organised as possible. TASK 3: Plot a text graph of some other trading data Task 3 involves plotting a text-based graph of some other trading data. It is up to you to decide what that data is, but it should be somehow derived from the crypto-currency data. Again, you need to plot it using text characters, and you should probably start by manually creating the text graph in your text editor do you know what you are aiming for, as we suggested for the previous task.
