JFreeChart question

[theChameleon]

hi, i successfully drew the candlestick chart for stocks, but i have a few problems and need help.

1) if i close the window of the chart, the whole program closes. how do i prevent this?

2) how do i add additional lines to the candlestick chart? eg. EMA, SMA, etc etc. can i add points (coordinates) on the candlestick chart?

3) how do i allow the user to draw trend lines and fibbonaci lines?

4) how do i add additional technical charts like MACD, STO, etc etc below the original candlestick chart?

5) how do i make the values update-able, instead of having to draw a new chart every time?(i want to make a live/realtime chart)

if JFreeChart cant do it, do u know of any other API that can do it?

thanks.

in the window of the chart don't call the setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE) because this will close the whole program. instead implement a close button and in the listener of this button you can invoke the method dispose() which will close only the chart window.
