Supported Visualizations

---

As the tables below make clear, the Highcharts for Python Toolkit and the Highcharts suite of JavaScript libraries are likely the single most comprehensive suite of data visualization tools available in the market. With over 70 (seventy!) distinct data visualizations and 50 (fifty!) technical indicators <technical indicator>, you will be able to construct a beautiful and interactive portrayal of your data.

Series with Data

The following are the series types that have .data properties and which can be used to visualize your data.

• Using Highcharts for Python <using> > Working with Data <working_with_data>
• Using Highcharts for Python <using> > Adding Series to Charts <adding_series_to_charts>
• Using Highcharts for Python <using> > Populating Series Data <populating_series_data>

Core

Note

The visualizations below are provided by Highcharts Core for Python and Highcharts Core. They are also available in the other libraries within the toolkit.
