Details and Options Details and Options

The dates are considered an ordered sequence of events, and are not shown on an absolute time scale.
The date formats for are the same as used in DateListPlot.
The and daterange are the same as used in FinancialData.
Data elements for CandlestickChart can be given in the following forms:
{date_i,ohlc_i} a pure date and open-high-low-close (ohlc) pair

w_i[{date_i,ohlc_i},...] a date ohlc and wrapper

form_i->m_i a date ohlc with metadata
Data not given in these forms is taken to be missing, and is typically excluded when generating the chart.
Data for CandlestickChart can be given in the following forms:
{e₁,e₂,...}, {"name",daterange} data without overall wrapper

w[{e₁,e₂,...}], w[{"name",daterange}] data with overall wrapper
The following wrappers can be used for data elements:

	Annotation[e,label]	provide an annotation
	Button[e,action]	define an action to execute when the element is clicked
	EventHandler[e,...]	define a general event handler for the element
	Hyperlink[e,uri]	make the element act as a hyperlink
	Labeled[e,...]	display the element with labeling
	PopupWindow[e,cont]	attach a popup window to the element
	StatusArea[e,label]	display in the status area when the element is moused over
	Style[e,opts]	show the element using the specified styles
	Tooltip[e,label]	attach an arbitrary tooltip to the element

	"Open","High","Low","Close"	open, high, low, and close positions in the candlestick
	{{b_x,b_y},{l_x,l_y}}	scaled position in the label at scaled position in the candlestick

CandlestickChart has the same options as Graphics with the following additions and changes:

AspectRatio	1/GoldenRatio	overall ratio of width to height
Axes	True	whether to draw axes
BarSpacing	Automatic	spacing between candles
ChartBaseStyle	Automatic	overall style for candles
ChartElementFunction	Automatic	how to generate raw graphics for candlesticks
ColorFunction	Automatic	how to color candles
ColorFunctionScaling	True	whether to normalize arguments to ColorFunction
DateFunction	Automatic	how to convert dates to standard form
EventLabels	None	events to label
GridLines	Automatic	grid lines to draw
GridLinesStyle	Automatic	style for grid lines
PerformanceGoal	$PerformanceGoal	aspects of performance to try to optimize
TrendStyle	Automatic	how to style up and down trends

With ScalingFunctions->s_y the function is applied to all prices (open, high, low, close). ScalingFunctions only affects the display and none of the controls.
Style and other specifications from options and other constructs in CandlestickChart are effectively applied in the order TrendStyle, ColorFunction, Style and other wrappers, and ChartElementFunction, with later specifications overriding earlier ones.
