Here are two charts with time as X and price as Y. Each chart represents a day (9:30 to 4pm). And I am using the 5 minutes candlesticks (explanation is attached). So we should have 78 candlesticks in each chart. I appreciate your suggestions how to compare two charts, their move and directions. Each candlestick has 4 numbers: open, close, high, low. So we have 312 numbers in order of the time span. Please note that we dont use the actual prices, since they could vary a lot (1119 vs 47 in this case). We should use percentage of change, then we could compare charts with huge difference in price numbers. for each chart we have a group/string of 312 numbers and times each happened. What formulas you suggest to compare this with another string of 312 numbers in the same time order (time orders are the same so we might not need them in the calculations). Beginning from 9:30, we have 4 numbers every 5 minutes. open and close are beginning and ending numbers of each 5 minute candle, but high and low are inside that group with no predictable order. I want to compare the two and see how similar one behaved comparing to the other one. Please leave comment if any further explanation is needed. Thanks
