Sometimes the spread can widen drastically due to low liquidity or high volatility,

There is a Ask price and a Bid price, but Charts only shows the bars/candles based on Bid prices.

  • A "buy" position opens at the Ask price and closes at the Bid price.
  • A "sell" position opens at the Bid price and closes at the Ask price.
Enable the Ask price line on your chart so that you can track the current value visually.
