Best Way To Chart CandleStick Stock Information

[Laner107]

I am programming in c++ and making a ui that shows various information about stocks, do you all have any recommendations on the best way to show close to real time data through a candlestick chart on qt, I know there is QtCharts but what would you recommend on an API to use in QT and if anyone has done this what was the easiest way to go about this? It doesnt have to be exactly real time just maybe 15 minute delay or even an hour delay for now.

I would use QtCharts from Qt! What do you mean by this, do you mean you do not want to use QtCharts?

@JonB No i understand to use QtCharts, its the point where what api do you all use to pull the data to get QtCharts to plot the candlestick chart ie what api and or third party do you get the information about stock quotes/prices from?
