I was looking at some charts and I noticed that on some days when the close would be above the open, the candlestick would be a hollow red. 

I was just wondering what the technical signifigance of this would be?

Thanks, Joe.

The candlesticks in TeleChart combine color and body type to provide both Current Close versus Current Open and Current Close versus Previous Close information in the same Candle (if Plot down days in a different color is selected).

Candlesticks:

Current Close > Open = Hollow
Current Close < Open = Solid
Current Close >= Previous Close = Green
Current Close < Previous Close = Red

Price Color and Volume Bar Color treat a Net Change of zero differently. The Candle is green but the Volume Bar is red.

Volume Bars:

Current Close > Previous Close = Green
Current Close <= Previous Close = Red
