Question

What is usually shown at the bottom of a bar chart?

a. advance/decline line

b. closing price

c. a point and figure chart

d. volume

Answer 1

d. volume

A bar chart shows multiple price bars of the price of the stock over a time period. Here, each bar shows the amount of the movement by the stock on a particular time period. At the bottom of the bar chart, Volume of the traded quantity is shown for that particular time-period

The advance/decline line is incorrect as it is generally used to measure the breadth of the market. A closing price and a pint and figure charge is shown parallel or overlapping to the bar chart and hence are incorrect options.
